First Planting

We didn't make it to the farm yesterday what with the poultry show and visitors last night. I mixed feed and rode this morning, had an early lunch then drove the 20 minutes to Woodlawn. I checked on these girls - 10 new additions purchased last week at the local saleyards, all in calf. It's good to have some cows again; they quickly met up with the charolais mother and calf.

Is there anything more beautiful than a soft angus face with that mop of hair and the nose swirl?

My first herb planting - parsley and oregano in the garden bed between the garage and the back door.

I did a little spraying around the edges. We have a few ownership issues in our family so I like to let everyone know what's mine - so that when I go looking for it next time, it will be where I left it.

I resurrected my ancient iPod Mk I - I had it playing loud on shuffle as I tried to remove the glue left behind from the wallpaper in Meg's room.

When I went outside to start spraying the battery died.....I nearly think the poor old brick (compared to the latest models) is obsolete. It might be time for a new one.

I drove home in the afternoon sun, thinking about the weekend, planning my week at work and looking forward to next weekend. Life is good. Hope it stays that way.
