!! Jessee's Bootcamp Experience for today

BEL #7

Hey everybody!

Sooo today, started off the morning going up to The Lab to continue with junk pole fencing.

In the afternoon at Basecamp, moved one of the sprinklers since we do irrigation throughout the day. We do one section at a time every two hours. That has made a difference in how everything looks.

Then took part in a video probing the soil from one of the hugels. The idea is to show how some areas the soil is good, in others it's so and so; midway, and the area I showed still needs more attention as far as irrigation is concerned.

After that, headed back up to The Lab.

Thanks everybody!

Hi again!

I assisted with the setting up for irrigation before heading over to The Lab.

From there up at The Lab, changed the water for the cats who stay at Allerton Abbey.

Then proceeded to join the group already there with junk pole fencing.

In the afternoon at Basecamp, since it started raining. I stayed indoors by the shop doing chainsaw maintenance.

That's it for now.

Hi!

This morning, went up to Allerton Abbey to do more junk pole fencing. But before I got to that, I got assistance with replacing one of the poles from the framing itself.
This particular pole got replaced due to it being rotted out. Once that was done, I resumed to the usual routine.

In the afternoon, down by Basecamp, I cleared out a trail I had done a good while ago on top of one of the hugels.

That is all for today.

Hello everyone!

In the morning, up at The Lab, refreshed the drinking water for the Allerton Abbey cats.

Then went onto doing more junk pole fencing.

In the afternoon, down at Basecamp, continued with cleaning up the one of the trails by the Horseradish Hugel.

While doing that, Paul, came out to do some clearing himself. Since there is a new trail added at the bottom of Horseradish Hugel, he wanted it so when folks come by and park by Turtle Lot, there will be some visible trail to follow going to the Fisher Price House. Sooo, I assisted Paul in the creation of stairs which lead to a trail the goes up towards the Fisher Price House and nearby locations.

Afterwards, went back up to The Lab for guess what? More junk pole fencing, lol!

That was it for Friday!

Have a cool weekend everyone!

Hello everybody!

Since it was raining on and off, started the morning down at Basecamp. The first project consisted of making the stairs that Paul and I chiseled away until it was right there more noticeable. I cleared it out some and will continue to clear some more tomorrow before deciding exactly what to add on to it if at all.

For the afternoon, went up to The Lab and went on with junk pole fencing. Towards the end of the afternoon, checked on the cats and saw that their water needed some changing.

That was all for the day.

Oh yes, one more thing, yesterday I had to take a pic of a 🌻 that is located by the entrance. What makes this sunflower so special, is that out of all the seeds that were planted back in April. This is the only one so far that came alive💛... If you look closely, you'll see a 🐝.

I would like this moment to thank those who have reached out with a comment/question.

Thank you a Timothy for enjoying my posts

No Christopher junk poles are not usually stout. Yet, it does depend on how the framing is built. If anybody has any experience with framing, I believe they are aware of what they are doing. The last three stout junk poles I put up and were taken down with a new framing. In this new framing, no stout junk poles.

Yes, Nancy, I alternate the junk poles when I fill in the framing for the most part. First and foremost is to alternate. If I don't, it will be due to what is available at the moment or for a small section there is a certain way the poles will go in easier. Alternating or not, the poles are put in to fit as firmly as possible. If it's too loose, it comes right back out and maybe it will fit better in another section. The poles have to fit right and look a certain way for me to be satisfied.

Thank you for following my posts, Inge.

Hey Jessee,
Are those the Anotovka apple seeds we planted near Arrakis?
I'd be interested to know how many grew...

Hello everyone!

I started the day by going to The Lab. Once there, I fed the Abbey cats and changed their water. From there, continued with junk poles.

In the afternoon, back at Basecamp, continued with the stairs by the new trail that was paved when we had the excavator. So today, what I basically did was clean out as much I was able to. It is still an going project.

Afterwards ended the day by changing some of the light bulbs at the Work Shop. This turned out to be an on going progress project as well. As I was changing the bulbs found out some of the lamps will be needing some repair. Plus, now I need to figure out if some of the bulbs I took out really are used up or are still good.

Ended the day with Taco Tuesday.

Hi!

Ok, so in the morning continued with junk poles. But first, the Abbey cats got fed and left with fresh water. Continuing with the junk poles, while my fellow boots are doing the framing ahead of me. I'm right there following along filling in the framing.

For the afternoon at Basecamp, watered the small trees on Lightning Hill.

Then moved on to some more cleaning up by the newly discovered stairs.

Closed the day with chainsaw maintenance

Hi Cat Knight,

No, the pics I have been showing of the growing trees are not from the Anotovka seeds by Arrakis. Unfortunately, there are no trees by those seeds by Arrakis.
