Summary: Today began with calisthenics, piano practice, and Master Blend correspondence. This was ensued by a beef pasture inspection with Padre and then by a return to Jacobhouse where I wrote for about 1.25 hours before tending to a beef customer. Another hour of writing was followed by Principles of Advertising reading, coursework, and a quiz. I visited the studio at about 1 PM, and lunch occurred at 2PM; it consisted of grilled corn tortillas topped with vegetation, onion, salsa, and some of the best Master Blend ground beef thus far.

  • The ‘Big Blue’ spotted during our morning beef pasture inspection. The way that she is standing in this image accentuates the roundness of her rump.
  • I couldn’t help but put this directly after the prior picture. This is last night’s dinner (pre-cooking): a couple Master Blend New York Strips.
  • A Master Blend NYS cooked to medium rare via pan & grill and placed atop a bed of arugula and spinach. Dinner cannot get much better than this.
  • Master Blend tacos for lunch. Delicious.

(7:10 PM Update:) Afternoon activities were initiated with my taking a brief rest in Jacobhouse and watching a little bit of lecture from PoA. I next stepped outdoors to help with a variety of tasks split between farm and Madre-office. For the former, I helped load many Wagyu heifers onto a trailer and performed two beef pasture inspections (one with Padre and one without). For the latter, I – with the help of Wag, Madre, and Padre – glued together the outside waterlines, and later, I roughened, cleaned, and glued all of the below-floor CPVC piping.

  • A picture from west-to-east of the ditch and waterline that delves into the Madre-office.
  • An east-to-west view of the prior picture (shows the entry point a tad better).
  • These lines bring hot and cold water to the shower and toilet.
  • Green on green. The camouflage was almost effective.

Final Note: At present, I am putting together today’s entry while waiting for a potato to bake. It smells quite delectable, but I am not too hungry at the moment on account of a late lunch. No matter what I do for dinner, though, leisure is sure to follow.
