Another humongous job. All that trash had to be hand-lifted out of all the ditches before the water could flow evenly and smoothly onto the farm.
We did it! The work was exhausting and satisfying, all wrapped up in one.
We are there! The ground is terribly dry and extremely hard in spots. Hard enough, it’s shiny.
Although I must say—it did smell good as the water hit the soil — a smell divine.
Your friend on a western Colorado farm,
