Although Terry is not ‘farming’ this year, there is always something to do out on the land

There are ‘things’ which must be done, no matter what, if a person wishes to keep the farm in good repair

Which means fences must be checked and maintained,

(This is an old photo from 2015, but it gives you an idea of the fire road.

but it gives you an idea of the fire road.)

the farm fire road in good and serviceable condition

And repairs here and there on this and that.

But one thing about not being on the production part of the farm is there is time.

Which is a very nice thing when one is 70 and the other is 75.

Time Passes Quickly, Like a Summer Cloud—Tuesday, May 9, 2017

Terry is creasing the corn fields now…knocking off the tops of the rows so the corn doesn’t have to grow through too much soil.

Everyday, twice or more times a day we are changing water.

Terry has started the last fields to plant pinto beans, then we have one more field to plant into alfalfa.

The days are long…way into the night right now…but passing fast.

We are making headway…my circle garden in now complete and planted. No longer the derelict western prairie graveyard it WAS looking like.  If the seeds grow, fingers crossed it should soften up.

I am thinking it will look sort of like this garden in time.
