God(s) sends his beauty and magic, it’s in the garden, in our own backyard, and in the stars!
Our wonderful daughter-in-law sent us the tail end of one at their house in Kalispell, Montana—glistening, glorious, raptured light-filled sky!!
A RAINBOW!!!
Thank you, Jolyne!!
From my world to your heart,

There is lots and lots of stuff going on
Our second hayfield is getting cut, even while Mom writes this letter to you.
We have hay in the haystack yard
And hay customers arriving to take away the hay
I bark the hay pick-ups and trailers into the yard and out of the yard
Then I go sit under our trailer and watch all the goings on
Add to all of that there is the changing of the water
Which causes several trips out to the farm
Then Mom has to do her own yard and housework. I Help Mom whatever she is doing.
Yep!
It’s a busy, busy time of the year!

For a fun tractor pull, lunch of pulled pork, other yummies, and great people!

The very last field is now planted with water started. It will be alfalfa!
Yep, we are heading toward a farm full of grass and alfalfa, hoping not to work so much!

LADYBUGS! Keeping the alfalfa free of pests!
Once the stems dry down the Lady Bugs fly away. They come back after the plant gets a few leaves back on it.
Ain’t Nature Grand!

Time to cut hay! it is starting to bloom! When the hay just starts to bloom the protein content is the highest.
Our world smells like just mown hay.
Delicious!
