We finally got the pad done for the tiny house/shed.

| cleared land for pad site |

| the gravel arrives |

| spreading gravel |

| And the gravel is laid, spread and leveled |
We also had Brett, the landscape guy, clear and level a pad for the camper up near the tiny house site. We are now a ways away form the animals, and the bugs are not as bad. It may also be a condition of having the land cleared up in this area.

| Camper moved next to office |
While we haven't been working much on the office as we shuffle animal pens and campers around, we have gotten most of the back straw bale wall done. Richard put wire fence along the back wall to hold the bales in and we will also put 2 x 4 (or whatever we can find cheap) on the inside walls. Then the two fences are "sewn" together through the straw bales with wire. This creates a stable and secure wall.
We also got a few more Earth bags done and leveled in the front wall.
The Industrial Hemp continues to grow. It loves the daily rain. It is budding now.

| Hemp...glorious hemp |
And while on our daily walks, we have discovered some of the critters and plants around us:
 |
| Red velvet ant |
The Red velvet Ant is really a female wasp. They run frantically along the ground, looking for places to dig underground.
 |
| beetle with a tail |
Not sure what the beetle with a tail is. They look like stink bugs, which we also have a lot of, except these guys have this weird tail.
 |
| salt brush |
The little salt brush plants look almost like ferns. Except they're prickly and live in the desert.

The desert plants are starting to change. I'm guessing the end of summer is getting near. This plant almost looks like some kind of succulent. I have yet to identify it. No flowers on it.
