No, not just firewood
But pruning of the orchard
Pruning of the dangerous limbs off the old trees by the house
And weed trees growing where they should NOT be!
Wood! We’ve been crazy for wood this year. 🙂

The lawns are showing sprigs of green—the alfalfa is getting two leaf sprouts, and the weeds are thriving!
Although cold, it is starting to feel more and more like Spring.

Yep!
Those stinky kitties
Are awake and moving around.
SPRING!!! Everyone is glad!

TLC and I had a big play out in the alfalfa field
It was lots of fun
We had Run
Play
Sniff
This was while we were on a walk with Mom.
Dry dirt is just the best!!!
BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mom heard another big storm is heading back in here
NO!
No more this
Or This
Or ANYTHING Like THIS
We want the farming season to begin,
which means DRY!
So, we can PLAY!!

It’s the small things that make our world so beautiful!
It really is.

Spring really is coming—-really really it is
Instead of pink just before the sun sets
The sky turns purple.
Tranquil, purple whispers of Spring.

Melting most of the big snow drifts!
OH! YAY!
But the weather people are saying another Snow Storm is due in here Thursday!
Melt and warmer temps and even a drying wind is a good sign of Spring.

Is getting the logs split and into the stove!
We do it together– he lifts and splits. I take the splits and stack!
Then haul it into the house. (I like to use the rounds and the splits as a mix in the firebox)
Wood…it’s been a fall/winter/ early Spring continuing job.

Oh, the wonder of MARCH!
The snow did a big melt
The wind helped
And the warmer temperatures
TLC stayed outside the whole day through
Me?
I Stayed with Mom
Mom is my job
TLC says his job is the farm
We both say
(See me in the window and TLC trying to get in?)
Yay! It’s March!
Mom says careful kids, March is tricky
We can still get lots of snow
Or rain
Or something.
For sure she says we will get
WIND!
We don’t care…
It’s March
And the ground is mostly dry!
