Another day spent doing odd jobs about the farm. Let's see; the morning was mostly spent washing eggs for 3 hours. That's always a fun job. We washed six days worth of eggs, which ended up being 134 dozen, or 1,608. (Minus the cracked ones, which we feed to the pigs.) So yeah, that took most of the morning that's left after milking and cleaning the barn. And of course, more lambs. We had twins this morning, and they are the cutest yet.
In the afternoon we just worked on a bunch of little stuff. Some cleaning was done, hay bales moved, etc. I keep ending up being assigned to shop projects, which is pretty fun. Yesterday I put together some screens for the windows in the trailer, so now I will have fresh air. Today I did metal cutting and drilling to make some kind of support pieces for the barn addition that is being built this summer.
We also transplanted some willow trees that Andrew started from cuttings. They are now residing by the pond, hopefully to be large and graceful someday.

We ended the day with a group pizza night. All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable day, with another one expected tomorrow. I really like my job.
