Managed to get 3 coats of epoxy over the entire floor. I’m pretty happy with the results so long as it holds up for awhile. It won’t be fully cured for about 10 days, but now I can move on to finish electrical and wall coverings.
Deepwoodsbutcher That is really looking good & coming right along. You will be ready for the next big batch in no time flat.

Deepwoodsbutcher You’ve got a good buddy, that healer I see there. We lost our last one about a year ago & I just have not been able to find someone to wear ol Duke’s shoes, yet. They will help you every bit of the way if they can.
calldoctoday He’s a great dog. Always by our sides. Managed to find himself a porcupine the other day. Thankfully, it wasn’t bad at all. My other dog passed away this winter at 15.5. He would go all out on porcupines. Killed one once and was absolutely covered in quills. He just stood there wagging his tail while I pulled out close to 50 of them. Still ended up at the vet because he had them up his nasal cavity. Glad our healer backed off quickly.

Definitely have some big batches in my future. I’ve got over 100#s of butts in my freezer and 2 beef scheduled for the summer (wish people scheduled closer to fall, but it never goes that way lol).

Deepwoodsbutcher Now, all you have to plan are the seasonings. That’s the hard choice.

zbigjeff I know. How do I choose?
I’ve got a few ideas for some smaller test batches to try. Going to with an apple and maple sage breakfast sausage. But still open to more possibilities. -

Deepwoodsbutcher Yikes on the porcupines. But, That is a beautiful healer you have. He has a little of Bentley’s mark too!

Deepwoodsbutcher thats a great looking pup. Is he a skunk chaser also? My Border was definitely a slow learner when it came to skunks. I miss her terribly, but not the skunk chasing.

Deepwoodsbutcher you need to get another dog now so that the older one will teach the younger they learn from each other

GWG8541 he hasn’t gotten into that yet. Had a bloodhound that did though. Our heeler never leaves our sides. This porcupine came into the yard near the house and it was just after dark so we didn’t see it when my husband took the dog out.

I agee with this. He is actually the pup we got that would learn from my 2 older dogs. The second one just died about 4 months ago. We got this guy a pup too, but she ended up being too timid for his personality. They got along and she learned from him, but ultimately after 4 years we decided it was best for her to be an only dog. She lives down the road with my mother now, and she is much more confident. We still get them together to play for short periods of time, but she much prefers to play alone.

Craig Rice Mine always learned the bad habits from the older dog.

Picked up materials for finishing the interior of the shop. 4x8 Nrp panels and all the moulding/ trim. Glue for installation and caulk for sealing. Getting so close to moving in. Hopefully, by the end of next week we’ll be wrapping up construction!

Denny O it’s nrp. It’s still USDA certified and was considerably cheaper then frp. I decided this was an area I could go with the money saving option.
