In a hole 4 + feet deep. And I am totally worn out. And beat. Bushed. Exhausted. Not to mention quite chilled and still dripping sweat.

Worked hard all day and got ONE post in the ground. But the post was a 10 feet long, 16 inches across section of telephone pole.

Lunch is now history. On the way back to the cedar thicket and then to dig a deep hole…

Just checked the survey map and that fence section is 307.7 ft long. But the map was made before the road moved so figure another 15 ft.

Waiting for it to get on the table now. Looks like I’m gonna have to add posts and barbed wire along the entire side fence.

Located some downed trees that should work, cut a path to them and then severed them. Twas time for lunch so came back to eat.

Carried T-posts, wire, post pounder, and shovels to fence and unloaded them. Then to the cedar thicket to find new corner post and braces.

Along with the boom, assorted implements of destruction, chainsaw, pole hole digging shovels w 9 ft handles, field wire, and 100+ ft cable.

Cleared more of the side fence to discover it was/is down in several places. So more work to do. Got 20+ T-posts loaded on the trailer.

Got the brush cleared down the side fence far enough to sight a line. Dug down about a foot and found the remains of the corner post.

Gray overcast day so far. Forecast shows sun by midafternoon, along with mid to high 40’s temp wise. Will see when it gets here.

Tis morning and coffee is done. And so is the first cup. Fingers not complying with brain yet though.

Twas quite good. Will be making it again, as well as cooking other dishes with couscous. Seems a very versatile pasta.

Smells good. Hoping it will turn out the same. Used canned peas rather than frozen too. First time using couscous so hoping it works out.

Supper finishing up now. Trying something new. Added chicken to the recipe http://busycooks.about.com/od/seafoodrecipe1/r/skilletpaella.htm
