NO MORE BARN
It's official. The guy that owns the barn called Darren around 1 pm and he came to the house and told Darren that he doesn't want us to use his barn anymore. He wants us to get all our tack out of the barn along with the square hay bales I have in there. He also wants us to move the manure pile out of his half of the pasture. I don't know where we are going to put 6 months of horse crap or how we are going to move it without a tractor. Darren suggested moving the manure into the slew behind our house that stays dry for the most part. It doesn't drain anywhere and is normally only wet 2 months out of the year. I thought it was a good idea first, but then the thought of the smell off all that horse dung in stagnant water repulsed me and I am sure that the people at the elevator along with the farmers that take their grain there would just LOVE that. There is some other things that he wants us to do. They are going to cost us some money and he wants them done RIGHTNOW but we don't have the money to do it so we are going to have to wait and hopefully he will be patient about it but I doubt it. He's been kind of an ass lately. I tried calling a guy that has some older buildings but I couldn't get a hold of him directly so I just left messages on his answering machine and hopefully he will call me back. If not, I will try calling him again in the next day or two.
