The Heat Is On

We have been very busy the last couple of days trying to get as much done before the hot, hot, hot weeks of Nebraska summer hit us full force. Today was the first bad one with temperatures over 100 degrees! The children have found a great way to stay cool!
We have our new roof on and they should be finished with the siding tomorrow or soon after. It will be nice to get the equipment out of the yard. The chicken coop is finished and a batch of chicks will be here tomorrow. It turned out as planned but I think it's a little heavier than I wanted. We will try a different plan for the next one we build.
Bullseye escaped twice yesterday. We found where he was knocking the fence down. He discovered which fence was hot and which one was not. So we put him in the back pasture next to the cow. And we are picking the last of the cherries. We had mulberry cherry pancakes tonight! The apples are looking nice and soon I will be doing apple butter.

My cherry pickers!
