Today marks the sixth year anniversary here at "the ranch"!! It is hard to believe that six years ago we had no idea our humble home would evolve to a little ranch with the dogs, donkeys, hens and a cat...and that the kids would move on and grow up (well, we had some idea about that)...today we also put up the fencing for the veggie garden. We're using the same fencing that we use for the donkey pasture and will modify it to keep out the various creatures! I can't wait to have a veggie garden!

Randy has a beer break after work with his boys.
