HZ Harvest

I saw this sign on the Readers Digest website and just absolutely love it.

We went up on the back 300 acres last evening and saw this beautiful sight. This is a herd of elk that has been hanging out there. These animals never cease to amaze me. They are so large, but yet so graceful.

We have a bunch of romaine lettuce and broccoli that is ready this week. We just had a yummy salad from the field for lunch. We had some odd weather in the past couple of weeks so I figured that the tomato blossoms would drop. Guess what. Our tomato plants are covered with little tomatoes!

I'm really beat this afternoon. I got up very early and took out the tractor to mow the roads. After that, I spent the remainder of the morning trimming fruit trees. I thought it would be a good idea to take my little dogs, Tuck and Burner with me. Wrong! The poor little things became covered with those little corkscrew stickers. So, before lunch, I gave them each a bath and brush out.

Marvin and his guys are working hard to finish the frontage fence. It is looking really great but takes a lot of work.

Our hay is all in rows. The challenge now is to find someone to come and bale it. I'm sure hoping to get it done soon so I can use some of it for the Bradley kids to sit on for their lunch next Friday when they come to visit the farm.

Hope your week goes quickly and that you have the weekend off!
