And the rockpiles are diminishing!

Hi all,
As I speak, the people from the railroad are taking our rocks! They have one dump truck, and one pay loader here, and they are loading the truck; then taking the rocks down to Kintyre; and just stockpiling them there with another pay loader to load they're machine that goes on the track and distributes the rocks.
Well, Mom is of in Bismarck; Cora is at her CNA training again; Dad and Andrew are outside working on Andrew's grain cleaner; and I thought that I had better do some school today, or else I would be in trouble with Mom. So, the house is quiet, except for the beepers on the railroad's equipment.

Gotta go,

Rockpiles Be Gone!!!

Hi all,
As the title says, we are getting rid of all of our rock piles for free!! Here is how it happened. Yesterday, a man from the railroad pulled in, and asked to see Dad. I told him that Dad was down in the quonset, and he went down there.

Later, Dad came in the house very happily, and told me that the railroad wants all of our rock piles! And today, with all of the wind and the rain, the rocks over on the railroad bed over on the lake are washing out, so they need our rocks now!

I will post pictures later,

A late post.

Hi guys,

Yes, I know that this is waaaaay late, but I have been so busy out in the shop; helping Grandpa and Grandma move; working on Andrew's cleaner; and so many other things; that school has been postponed (didn't hurt my feelings any ;-) )

So, Dad, Mom, and I just got in from tagging seven calves out in the pasture; and now Mom is resting; and I am writing to you (surprise!). Also, Cora got hired at the Napoleon Care Center, so now she is out at her CNA training, and Andrew is out grain cleaning, so now it is just Dad, Mom, and me here at home.

Gotta go,

Jacob
