Getting breezy out there.

.

I didn't have to check on the critters.  But I wanted to refresh the duck pond.  And... I... just wanted to check on them.  Glad I did.  While the thermometer suggests around 28 F, there is a stiff breeze, or really wind, from the north.  Constant, 8 to 12 knots I would guess.  And cold!  So, I put the tarps down, better, on the rabbits, added a few logs to keep it all down, may add more.

The rabbit feed all looks good, as does water.  And it's all still thawed.  The ducks are doing well.  I am refreshing the pond, should give them all time to bath.  Once or twice a week I try to give them a bit more time with fresh water.  I best turn the water off shortly.  Still, it's a rare treat for them.  I will check their food while at it, if I suspect their food will be quite good still.

I may take a nap.  I had hoped to get to town, it just wasn't possible.  Tired.  I am still hoping to get the new latches, or some of them, on.  A cordless drill, bit, and... two minutes per?  Maybe.  Unless something fails.  Hmm, I should drill a starter, so the wood doesn't split.  Yea, I could see that happening.  It adds time and complexity.  It saves major repairs.

First, though, a nap?  I don't quite know yet.  I might play the game for a bit, while I consider.  Later.
