The day started off well enough the weather was clear and it wasn't raining.
Mac hauled rocks out of the second pasture we are clearing and CJ arrived with his back hoe to cut some new trenches so I can lay more irrigation pipes.
CJ only broke one water pipe along the way and we fixed that .
The weather declined as the day wore on and by 1pm it was raining and just above freezing.
We eventually got everything dug out more or less and called it a day at 4.30.
By then the irrigation trenches were starting to look like a scene from World War One.
