We were glad the hard frost forecast for last night, this a.m. did not materialize for us! Now it sounds like frosts will be a thing of the past until fall... so the annuals that have been sitting on the deck can be planted and we can await their show! Field work has gotten done in a timely fashion also. We were remarking that this has been the best year in a long time for that. Alfalfa is growing nicely and likely we can start cutting by the end of the week or first of the next and hopefully weather will be nice for that task!
Other special things from the last few days is Aunt Agnes going to Norway for the summer. We are glad she can go as know her heart is there. We look forward to having her with us for a couple weeks on her return.
Here are some spring flowers from walks along the way!
cowslips
trillums
The consensus in dairy animal husbandry these days is that you don't let the calf and cow stay together any longer than can be helped so these types of scenes aren't very commom. I've been watching for one to post so here goes! Farmer Marv also said it is a good thing she didn't need help since Anita B. wasn't here!
And along the way that day, I found these dancing tulips!
