Saving the Buggy

Remember when I said that we had to abandoned the Bad Boy Buggy after the snow storm? Well, we decided we needed to save it before any more wet weather came our way. So, I went to the local Co-op and bought 4 bales of straw to fill in the eroding road bed. I felt like I was driving a parade float around town with my bales sprinkling bits of straw like confetti wherever I went!

We had to leave the buggy when the road eroded so much that we couldn't keep all four wheels on firm ground going up hill.

One of many erosion spots.

Roadway has shrunk to about 3 feet wide here.

Stud Muffin considering the problem.

First bale in, providing stability for Stud Muffin to drive over the hole.

Additional bales in other cave-ins.

This is where the buggy was originally parked. Even more bales here.

This is only a stop-gap measure, until we can get someone out to help us re-engineer the road and we get in some really big truck loads of rock!

And since I know how interested you all are in food (still), I made some more bread this morning.



I used my sourdough starter that I have been nurturing for a week or so now. It smells very "sour", but mostly it tastes like good fresh bread! But so good with butter!! Want a slice?
