But it isn’t pink, nor does it have a basket and the toys are still missing, but still….it is new!

We are going away for a weekend holiday! We are leaving tomorrow for ….I don’t know, but someplace overnight.

This is unheard of; never in all our years of farming have we EVER left for a holiday in the middle of spring farm work.  But we are now!

Since Evan is home (no he doesn’t live with us) and he knows all about what the farm needs, and it’s a few days to early to plant beans, AND the alfalfa isn’t quite ready to be turned into hay, we are going to go someplace!

I don’t care where, to a tractor junkyard, or a tractor dealer in Nebraska, or Kansas, or Oklahoma.  Or a trip to the Indian reservation, I’m not picky – some place different, someplace to see how the farms are fairing, someplace to just relax and not think about what I need to be doing now. 

Summer is just about upon us, that means weeds, mowing the lawn, moving water, you know.  So I’m taking this holiday as the gift it is meant to be!

See ya on Monday!
