We're finally got somewheres with that fence along the road after a few weeks of procrastination by the counselor. The fencing crew's supposed to start on it today, running a six-wire fenceline all along the newly-developed road that borders the west side of our quarter section. Then Dad's gonna have them extend a five-wire fencline all the way up to the yard along the road that runs the length south-side of our quarter section. (I'll post pics of the fence line when it's done) So that'll mean that at least 95% of the border our quarter section will be fenced off. 
Reasons we're putting in a new fence in along there, is:
1) Keeps out the snowmobilers and trikers/quaders (PERMANENTLY) that occasionally like to race across and try to get away with ripping up our hay field
2) Potential to be used as a fourth/fifth pasture when the time is right.
SO,I have a hunch that that means that our stocker's will be put out to pasture (most likely the New Pasture with its new fenceline) again by either the middle of this week or by the end. AND there's been no escapee episdoes since I last posted!
(Hmmm, I wonder why? :roll: )
No word on the pipeline situation though. But I think they're almost done too.

I meant that the county's hired some fence-builders to build the fence for us.
