I think about 20% of Berkshire and yes I know he is heavy invested in Short term US treasuries. I wish I had access to short term US treasuries thru my 401k I’d of likely already positioned some of my balance into that investment if available to me. I’ve only got a couple crap bond funds and...

https://www.currentmarketvaluation.com/models/buffett-indicator.php Wish I knew when the ballon was going to pop for sure. I’m really considering pulling about 50% of my portfolio out of stocks and sitting on the sidelines with cash reserves. Buffet’s own metric shows market overvalued and I...

Pinky is a loving cat but sadly no longer available.

Good point barbed wire off the list

We don’t normally fool with pond structure in our farm ponds do to the cattle but the one I cleaned out last fall will likely not see cattle again at least for the foreseeable future so I’m thinking of adding structure. I think I’m going to build a fathead minnow breeding area out of drain pipe...

Two drought years in a row to flooding this year I lost two water gaps completely.

Well I think we have gotten about 5” that pond that only had a foot or two last week is about 2 foot from full today fish truck was at local feed store this morning so I picked up 3lbs of minnnows and 100 bluegill for that pond.

My 87 year old mother in-law bought a chainsaw a year or two ago. I about lost my mind when I saw it on her kitchen table. I don’t think she has tried to use it yet but who knows she it always puttering around her yard.

We got .85 today with .75 in tomorrows forecast I’d take even more if I could get it I had hoped to stock that pond I cleaned out last fall this spring but it’s still pretty low and I don't just want to feed the herons.

Facebook marketplace mostly. I didn’t give scrap price on these $87 each still cheaper than retail for sure but these are quite useful so I didn’t mind paying a bit for them. I called my steel supplier and he was $12 a foot on 12” 14lb I-beam and $19 a foot on 12” 22lb I-beam I think these are...

I scored a semi load of 12”x4”x9’ I-beams yesterday 49 in total I’ll likely use them to extend some chicken house trusses to put up a new shop over on the new farm when I get around to it. I believe they were originally for an extremely heavy duty pallet storage system of some sort.

I was under the impression a foreign resident couldn’t buy land in Mexico is this not the case or do you have a workaround?
