Today’s project at the Rocking W Ranch… build a log cabin birdhouse.
Found a couple of cool pictures and two measurements and winged it from there.
The Little Man was trying to figure out where the food was.
Finishing the afternoon off watching Vice Grip Garage with chips and cheese dip.🐴😁🤭

The Bluebird Project took a cool twist when the paint dried. The paint did some really cool crazing which I think added some nice character 🤭.
Smoking a few hams today while the brothers and I do our Annual Christmas Eve shopping. A little earlier than our 50 + year tradition but we are still trying 🥰🌲.

Snow day at the Rocking W Ranch 🥶.
Spent the last couple of days getting hay moved and tank heaters in place. Now just hunker down and chill.

BE VERY CAREFUL.
Poison Hemlock (Conium maculatum) is up and about to flower!
This highly toxic invasive plant is spreading fast across Tennessee roadsides, fields, and fence lines.
☠️ Every part of the plant is poisonous to humans and animals—just touching or inhaling particles while cutting can be dangerous.
Look for tall, hollow stems with PURPLE spots and small white flower clusters forming now.
Avoid contact and NEVER mow or burn it.
If you suspect Poison Hemlock on your property, use
gloves and consult your local extension office for safe removal options.
Yup, got some in our yard.
Know what to look for—stay safe this spring!
GOOD ADVICE.
