Good Fences #66 or OH NO, NOT AGAIN

Do you see anything missing from the corral?  Here's a hint. http://4rranch.blogspot.com/2015/01/good-fences-43.html.
 We came home Sunday evening to find an escapee.
 E's trampoline had made a break for it and was in the hollow with the heifers.
 You can see how far it made it before we were able to catch it and foil it's escape plans.
It was just a good thing V's boyfriend Mike was here to help carry it back up the hill.   I really thought that putting it on the east side of the barn, surrounding it by a corral and tying it to the hitching post would have been enough.  But nooo, some kind of crazy wind we have around here.  It's not too much worse for the wear, a little repair work and E will be back and jumping on it in no time.  Maybe a logging chain instead of a nylon strap to tie it up as well.

  6. Holy cow! Are you in tornado country? (We are.)
    Once the (closed) patio umbrella caught a draft & hopped over the roof, landing right behind a parked car, amazingly it missed damaging the car & we still use the umbrella to this day.
    We take it down & lay it on the ground tucked right next to a wall now though. Just in case.
