another long weekend

well had another long weekend, but then again i get long weekends almost every weekend. im off today because the the job we had lined up for today wont be ready for a few more days. so i will be pouring a concrete slab that will be 200 feet by 202 feet and 6 inches thick, IF they have the site work done. yesterday RObbie and I sat down and had dinner picnic style in the living room. Lani was gone on a gig so it was just the two of us. Robbie went upstairs and got a blanket and we sat on the living room floor and watched a TV show called Dirty Jobs, which i like, which was on bug breeding. it was a good show and robbie like it. will talk more later

another work week

well this week started off with finishing repairs on the roofs of 2 old barns and clean up the barn we built to get ready for the cows to occupy it. this area is busy with corn harvest which is about 2 weeks early due to the lack of rain. Tomorrow i will be starting a remodeling job somewhere in Watertown. will let you know about that tomorrow. oh i forgot last week my boss gave me an air compressor that didn't work for him. said it was something wrong with the regulator or something. I'm going to get it looked at and see if i can get it fixed. so this is a possible new idea for birthday and Christmas gifts as air tools are pretty reasonable at most stores.

bye for now

got to catch up

sorry i haven't posted this is difficult for me to remember to write stuff down. well since the last time i talked we went to the Great New York State Fair. what a mad house that was. too many people crammed into a small space and it was a long day. but they had some cool stuff to see and i got to talk to the lady who runs the dairy farm where i been doing some work at. she was there showing some Jersey Heifers. she ended up with a 3rd place and a 4th place. i also have a picture of a calf that was about 2 minutes old at the time of the pic. if you get squeamish then i suggest you don't look. it does have a little blood on it and some other things. but it is awesome seeing a calf being born.

and of course i forgot i had my camera at the fair till the afternoon but i did get some with my phone of Robbie and Lani in the morning then i remembered i had the camera.

this is a giraffe that was at the petting zoo at the fair. there were 2 there and you could feed them and such but Robbie got scared. geez they are some tall animals. next we have Robbie bunny and then mommy and Robbie sheep. there were a whole lot of different animals at the fair which was surprising to me. it was a great time and lots of fun
