Work and the Farm!

Well, here I finally am blogging about our summer. Other than roofing or guttering or roofing or guttering - that seems to be all that happens!! Although, that isn't all bad!! Bruce has been putting in tons of hours and we haven't been eating supper till late - 9:00 p.m. or so. But, God has blessed us with plenty of work and we are spending quite a bit of time together now that I am helping with guttering. Bruce has commented on my work attire - pink flipflops, purple gloves, and shorts!! Oh well, I go for comfort not style :).....

We did get a new green addition to our farm - THE GATOR!! I'm quite sure it will be a big hit with all the grandkids........ I've already used it to haul off bagged grass and limbs. Really is fun to drive!!


The Gator!!
Bruce has been in the air some with Artie!! and he's so happy to get the 140 sold!!



Vizsla Playtime!!

My hollyhocks have been so pretty!! If you want some seed for the fall - let me know!

Was such a pretty day - I just snapped a picture of it .....

My Indian Blanket is going WILD!!

and so is the corn! Although after our 3" rain and the wind, much of it had blown over. Bruce went out and tied some of it up and stomped the rest in the ground! and it worked....





When I took this picture of the feed, it wasn't very tall, but now is up way past my knees. I'm not so sure the cows can keep up with it. Pa no tilled it in with the regular drill. What an idea!



Harvest is still going on around here, they finally got back in the fields this afternoon. Must go grill some burgers and have some squash on the side!!! Hi to all!! and happy Summer!
