Huffing & Puffing

Arrived at the farm early enough to take care of Sanna's wound and tease Wynne & Dalia before meeting Ruth, Rebekah, and Rachel for the walk. Now there is a real blessing when Ruth attends the walk, she can usually slow Rachel down a bit. Rachel and Rebekah are just walking along in front of us at such a fast pace that Ruth and I could hardly visit trying to keep up. We are huffing and puffing and the other 2 look like they are leisurely strolling. It may have looked like that but Ruth can attest that looks are deceiving, those two were booking it. We finished both loops before 8:00am.
Mark had the car loaded with light fixtures that all needed to be unloaded before heading home.
We received over an inch of rain last night in Hanna City. We are grateful even if now we are dealing with mud. The grass is growing and the fields are turning green. If the Middle Grove farm received the same amount those fields should take off quickly. Gary Unsicker planted orchard grass on top of the Middle Grove alfalfa field to help with the weeds, all that field needed was a good drenching rain and a bit of warmth.
