Made a loaf of bread.

Seasoned up a big sirloin that I'll put on the smoker for our suppers. Mrs. Ranch is making twice-baked potatoes too!!!

Went back to the feed store to picked up medicated molasses tubs, & then fueled up the truck.

Fed the cattle & put out 4 mineral blocks.

Harvested another bucket of tomatoes & took them to our daughter. She's finally going to learn to can, LOL!!!

Made stuffed jalapenos.

Put out the molasses tubs for the cattle.

Cleaned the hummingbird feeders for storage. I haven't seen any, which is unusual, as we always have had 2 or 3 that stayed here.

After prepping the wood, I applied two coats on penetrating marine epoxy (for wood boats) to stabilize the base of the greenhouse. In a couple of days I'll make another batch or two & mix in a bunch of sawdust & use a putty knife to fill in the cracks & old screw/bolt holes.

Continued my greenhouse base project by making a couple of batches of the marine epoxy & mixed in a bunch of sawdust to form a paste. I then worked it into all the holes & cracks in the wood beams. In a couple of days I'll hit it with a belt sander & see what it looks like.

Made 2 quarts of buttermilk ranch dressing for our daughter's family.

Grandson can to feed the cattle for us.
