We noticed the cattle are back. There are only 4 adults and a young one. He must have sold off most of his herd. Hope he was able to make some money since cattle prices are up as herds are being replenished.

I took down what I believe to be the last large batch of mesquite trees. I see why people are slow movers here. The heat makes you slow down and once it is your normal pace that is all you have. I need to learn to better pace myself and drinking more water would help also. Anyway the hatchet and axe method is slow and seems to be more strenuous then the power tools. Once I am organized and can get at all my tools faster I will definitely use power. Right now it takes an hour to dig them out and load them then an hour to out them away. Just cooling down now. I already took a cool shower and that helped, but the 80 degree temp in the house slows the cooling process. 🙂
