http://windmillranchpreserve.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 22, 2006. The pool, shed and water fountain. As is if we didn't have enough to do out here, we're on the verge of beginning at least three pretty big projects. They are; a pool, a big tool shed and a rustic-but fun looking water fountain. Anyway, that's today's progress report. We have at least three big projects and countless lil' ones. Posted by Windmill Ranch @ 4:04 PM. Wednesday, July 19, 2006. Eatin' what you grow. Still, we have a garden at the Windmill that's slowly producing. S...

Sunday, March 11, 2007. Posted by Windmill Ranch @ 5:30 PM. The Attack Goat, Part II. Billy the attack goat is really starting to make me mad. Please know, those aren't my exact thoughts, but that's what I'm writing because this blog is rated G. To fully understand this entry, you must read my previous note. Billy (i have no idea why this is now bold print) is safe, secure and very comfortable tonight. Meantime, I'm barely back at the ranch. Okay, no big deal. I have four wheel drive," I thought....Dang ...

http://windmillranchpreserve.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 16, 2006. Creature Comforts in the Country. For example, we have satellite TV. I watched a ton of football yesterday. Did ya see the end of the Saints/Eagles game? Great stuff. My youngest son is visiting. He watched "That's So Raven" and other younger audience stuff on one of the many childrens' channels. The boss, Marianne, nestled down last night for "Desperate Housewives." We don't have a TV in the individual quarters, but we do have a good one in the pavilion. If you want a country w...

Windmill Ranch Preserve: June 2006
http://windmillranchpreserve.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 30, 2006. After six months of moving everything from rock to mulch by shovel and wheelbarrow, we have a new tractor out here at the WRP. It's a beauty. And finally, my kids are here to enjoy all the ranch has to offer. And today, it was "everybody gets to drive the new tractor day.". Then came Jeff (the oldest). He's the artist of the group. very mellow. Well go figure, his time behind the wheel kinda looked like rehearsal for an upcoming production. He'd start, stop, start a...Next up was J...

Windmill Ranch Preserve: May 2006
http://windmillranchpreserve.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 18, 2006. My best flat ever and truck trouble X 3. In the last 24 hours, I've had one truck almost explode, another electronically die and a third blow a tire. My best flat ever! This story begins around 9am yesterday. The old truck, as we call it, all but exploded on the way to town. I knew it had problems. I could hear the knocking of the engine. So, I drove it (tried to) into town for an expert's opinion. You gotta meet Bubba, but that's another story. The next thing I know, the ole whit...

Wednesday, April 19, 2006. Nature's TV. doesn't disappoint. I just saw something (minutes ago) that made me stop in my tracks and watch. I never really paid that much attention to them until this evening. I got back from town a lil' while ago and noticed something zing by, over my shoulder. We're covered in lil' birds, since placing four custom built feeders near our pavilion. So I just figured. lil' bird. enjoy the feast. Now, it's everyday and it beats the heck outta anchoring the news. Just an update ...

Windmill Ranch Preserve: September 2006
http://windmillranchpreserve.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 20, 2006. I put up a deer feeder today and it got me thinking. I thought, 'this is a first. I seen 'em. I've heard about 'em. I've even hunted near one. But I've never actually installed a deer feeder.'. Well, that got me to thinking about all the other 'firsts' out here on the ranch. So bear w/ me. This is list is in no particular order. 2 Assisted a welder. 3 Operated a tractor with a box blade, shredder, front end loader (not all at the same time). 7 Installed a swimming pool pump.
