Image Vlog
I take a lot of images both of the farm, some of the Cattle and a ton of nature. Some of the images come from my worthless phone and others from professional cameras. Nothing is for sale but heck if you want a print feel free to let me know and i will tell you if it is possible along with cost.
enjoy --

The struggles and rewards are daily. Nothing going on boring here. The images do some justice but thought a short daily update hearing my voice might help. Enjoy.
Letters to a Farmer : July 3rd
So it is really July 4th and the report is simple. The gopher has no activity for two days. It seems the pellets are working and the little guys are gone for now. I spent the morning putting dirt back into 30 feet of tunnels.. fingers crossed. The damage is gigantic.
Letters to a Farmer: July 2nd
The audio gives some hope regarding the gophers. They work hard to rebuild what i tear apart. We are trying bate tonight. Fingers crossed.
Letters to a Farmer: June 25th. Hot, dry and fire ready
Yep, could use some moisture. The farm is making progress and Gopher is still kicking ass.
Letter to a Farmer: June 22nd Noon
Well not much changed. No water. A few minor drops of rain and some dry lightning. In any case every single living animal is trying to eat everything i have growing.
Letters to a Farmer: June 18th evening
Well the gopher has not shown up for two days. The farm is a small set of what it started out as. The weather is super hot and tomorrow is critical fire day.
Letters to a Farmer: June 16th
Hot as hell. Running low on water and gopher has returned.. stronger and smarter than last time.
Letters to a Farmer: June 15th
No gopher damage or tunnels this morning. Yesterday i dug up another 6 feet and i think the memo was sent out .. go somewhere else.. yes!! first time in weeks no damage. Lost over 100 plants to these guys..
Letters to a Farmer: June 14th Afternoon
Gopher work is yielding big learning. 1. Heavy cultivating keeps them away cause tunnels fall apart. 2. dig up their tunnels and they go away. A lot of work. Much learning.
Letters to a Farmer: June 13th evening
Busy day. Dug up about 50 feet of tunnel and did more damage. Tons of possible tunnels. I have no idea what the gopher will do tonight.
Letters to a Farmer: June 13th AM
Gophers ate more squash and i started the insane project of following and digging up all of their tunnels.
Letters to a Farmer: June 12th, Trauma Bonding with the Boys!
Trip to Wells to get something to get rid of my gopher which is kicking my butt hard core and laughing at the same time. I even got up at 3am. Darn.
Letters to a Farmer: June 11th
Well the gopher is sorta winning. The hawk managed to get a few other large mole / creatures.. but .. not my gopher. Lost some squash last night due to 22 degree freeze. Weather this year has been insane.
Letters to a Farmer: June 8th
Mostly good news. Not as much wind and much is growing. Much is planted and soon more to plant.
Letters to a Farmer: June 7th Tornado
Well, last night was exciting, shocking and damaging. But like all things out in the middle of nowhere you fix what you can and move forward. Gopher seems to have moved.
Letters to a Farmer: June 6th AM
Yesterday was supply day and mostly water day. It was super hot and dry around 6% hum . Tough on the farm but some of the beans started to come up. The gopher is doing less damage but ate most of the bush beans in one row. Plus we had an antelope.
Letters to a Farmer: June 4th
The wind died down from yesterday. I managed to secure all the boxes due to a large i mean large rabbit in the area eating all the things i want eaten. Most important i think we have something working regarding Mole / Gopher.
Letters to a Farmer: June 2nd
Easy day most important the mole / gopher did not attack so that gave me tons of free time.. Planting a few ore seeds and building some more boxes..
Letters to a Farmer - Resupply Day
Resupply, drive a lot and fight gophers that are kicking butt. Hawks everywhere. Cows invade in the middle of the night
