I did some more new jobs today and yesterday on the farm. It started out with milking my first cow on the farm since we got here. That's right, out of 800 cows we are milking a grand total of 1 cow. I used a bucket milker to get the job done. It is quick and only requires cleaning in the milker that I used instead of the whole entire milking system.
After that I started putting up a new fence in the center of the farm in an area that we will graze the few bulls we will have on the farm later in the year. I used 3 different types of posts; a Waritar which is a triangular metal post, a standard wood post, and fiberglass rods with an funny looking clip on them. I strung up "spider" wire in all the posts, which is a very thin wire. I think I could still use a little improvement on attaching insulators to the Waritars but other than that I think I did alright.
