Ordered the trees for the place today.  We are thinning out the pines that have died and not fallen down, and clearing the space for the barn.  SO we wanted to plant trees to replace the ones we are cutting down and the dead ones.

Most of these will go in the fields, along the drainage area, and in the area of the new pond.  I will probably place the pecan trees behind the old barn.

I can up with a new plan today about the placement of the paddocks in the fields for the donks and the placement of the barn.  Now I have to draw out my idea and see if it works.
