1. Spring is finally here! It feels like it should in March...breezy, but with a hint of warmth to the air, and temperatures in the 40's, 50's, and maybe even the 60's this week...
2. Our mailbox got ruined by all the flying snow as the plows went by this winter. We had been given a whimsical cow mailbox by some farmer friends who moved from the area, and kept it up in the granary in the barn all these years, just waiting for the right time to put it up here...
3. This afternoon is the first track meet of the season for our kids. They both run in the distance events, and we hope to get to see them run in at least one of their events before milking...
4. Isn't she a cute calf? This one was born early Monday morning. She and a buddy are hanging out in the goat pen until Jenna's 4-H goats arrive in a few weeks...
5. The chickens are taking every opportunity to escape their pen. They love foraging in the compost bin, the garden, and the flower beds...
The ones that didn't find the crack between the gate and the corner post are jealous...wondering how they can get in on the action...
That's just a quick glimpse of our week here.
I hope you're finding glimpses of spring, wherever you are!

ReplyDeleteYay....feels so good when spring has sprung...we are like the chickens and calves being let loose from the shed....can hardly wait to be free from the winter!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, it really looks like Spring at your farm, with snowdrop blooming and green grass and a brand new calf out in the fresh air. We still have mountains of snow but the snow has started to melt, it will be a long time before we see grass growing.
ReplyDeleteSome chicken are smarter than the rest, just like cattle.
Have a lovely weekend.
Hugs,
JB
