Today, I was throwing mothballs all over the property (to supposedly help) with the apparent snake issues we are having. Aside from that, I have been just plugging away on the chicken coop.

Sleeping where I need to close the door |
Speaking about Moth balls, check out this moth I found sleeping in the tracks of the barn door today (the exact same place I found the second snake... probably the only reason why I saw this). This guy was literally the size of my hand. His/her body was really thick and almost looked like a bat, plus its legs were covered in fur!! Crazy, and cool looking creature of the day!
Now, I am not saying that no one needs blueprints (nice little shout out to Bruce and Nancy! Miss ya guys), I really believe blueprints are essential for a place like a house or an office... but my blueprint free chicken coop is just ROCKING! (ok, ok, I know I used blueprints for the floor... get off my back!) But seriously, I had no idea it was going to look as fantastic as it is coming along. By the time I finished tonight, it is completely framed in, I have one wall of siding up, the roof trussed in, another wall half way sided in, and the door and 2 windows installed along with two air flow vents for circulation! WOW!! Yep, this is another me bragging on myself posts!

Another pretty sunset! |
But no worries, I am too tired to continue on with my bragging, so I shall leave you with some more pictures!! Yay!!
That last picture of the sunset with the drill would make a nice drill ad. Sounds like you are having fun. Can't wait for you to tell us what snake tastes like. All I know is you handled it better than I would. I am proud of you.

Hey Mom! Thanks, yeah, I haven't manned up and eaten it yet, it is in a salt brine in the fridge to hopefully get the game taste out, but I need to eat it by tomorrow night! Hope it taste like chicken! All I know is that I am burning it to a crisp to ensure that it is cooked all the way! :)
