Carpet and Installation from LOWE'S. is it WORHT IT?
A couple of months ago we got carpet from lowes. This is our story of dealing with Lowe's and the contractor. It is also a look at the installation after a few months.
The experience was what you'd expect from a big box retailer and bottom bidding contractor. But the carpet is actually really nice all for a GREAT price.
Come along and see how we plant squash, zucchini, melons, cucumbers and other cucurbits. Subscribe and see if we can beat the weeds, get germination and have a successful harvest!

Easter is a celebration of life. Not only of life but of life eternal and a conquering of death. As we looked at a couple weeks ago, death has no sting and no grip on Christians. Our Savior conquered it and we celebrate that TODAY! Not only did he defeat death for us, but he then came, blessed us with the Holy Spirit and sent us out into the world to make disciples and spread his love, grace and mercy. Disciples are sent, not by man, but by God. Go.

A string of chicken deaths leads to another run fortification. It's important we keep these chickens safe and producing.

The American Guinea Hogs escaped for the first time today. It's hard to be mad at such cute pigs, though. We had a temporary pig pen set up until we got the electric fence set up. Wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't have to wrangle the pigs up with a baby attached to me.
Homesteading has been quite an adventure so far and I can't wait for what else it holds for us. There isn't often a dull moment around here anymore.

We wanted an easier way to wire additional mods to the Kubota. So we put a new fuse block in the front of the vehicle so we don't have to wire every future accessory back to the battery.
There are a lot of fuse blocks on amazon, this is just the one I purchased and it works great! We also added a 60A fuse on the entire block for safety.
Next video we will be adding some Nilight spotlights to the fuse block.

We strive to eliminate as much waste as we can with our farming practices. Part of that is freezing all leftover food waste and cooking it back up into a nasty slop that our hogs LOVE!
Sometimes we mix it into the hog feed, and sometimes (especially when they are on pasture) we just give it to them straight, as a treat. Either way they love it and we waste less.

We don't know a whole lot what we are doing but we are gonna see if we can't get some apple trees to grow in the woods. Found a small clearing, and hoping for the best. Either way it's always fun to try a new thing.

We thought we were in for a headache fix. But all we needed to do was splice in a new piece of electric fence and replace a few insulators.
My father-in-law noticed the fence was down. We went to check on it and wire was everywhere. Luckily it was just one break in the line which caused the line to recoil and lay everywhere making it look way worse.
We grabbed the pliers and a spool of wire from the barn and the fix took all of 5 minutes. It turned out when the wire broke it took the insulator with it. The plastic was broken so we had to replace it.
We aren't sure what caused the damage, but we think it may have been a branch falling from a storm a day earlier. We had tornado warnings and triple digit winds as the cell moved directly over us. Thankfully there was no funnel.
