Another clean water trough

I cleaned the other livestock water trough.  I hadn't cleaned it since the horses left and it was pretty gunky.

This trough is cast iron and heavy and takes more effort to clean. The trough is very old (how many cast iron water troughs have you seen lately?) and the drain may be rusted shut.  I'm not sure.  I am afraid to take a wrench and open it as I may not be able to screw it back in to close it.  So I let the the cattle drink the water level low and then with great effort I lifted the trough and dumped the remaining water out.

Clean!


This should last until Spring.
