Hi Tim, beautiful photos this morning to start the day. I think the old cattle ramp is a keeper, it seems to belong there.I love the photos of the irrigation ditch too, it’s really something. ~ Mia
Thanks, Mia. I talked to the owner of the lots this morning, and we are in agreement that we should preserve the old cattle ramp. The irrigation ditch system is interesting, but they put so many restrictions on the water use these days, I would prefer they close the ditch and give us back land that the original property owners gave to the conservancy district in exchange for irrigation rights. We would gain back between a 1/4 and a 1/3 acre of land.
Glad you’re keeping the old cattle ramp; it has character. And who knows–someday you may well decide to host a Running of the Bulls, Tim, and it’ll come in handy.

Buon weekend Timothy, baci ai gattini 🙂
Ciao, Simona! The kitties are beside themselves and send you purrs and kitty kisses. Have a wonderful weekend. How are your August holidays so far?
Tutto bene 🙂

You’re welcome, Tim. That’s quite a bit of land.

Hi Cathy. I straightened up and stabilized the cattle ramp between downpours this afternoon.
You gave it life for awhile longer. If it were on my property, I might consider putting it to use as a trellis for a flowering vine.
Hi Cathy. The cattle ramp is a quarter mile down the road from the house. It will just have to have native plants around it.
