This morning it was 37 degrees here....
and we had a fair amount of rain last night.
The sun did show up.
While Lorrie shredded paper, I did some picking in the pastures.
At 10, Paula brought Finn over for some long lining.
Around 10:30 all hell broke loose....high winds, rain and then snow flakes!
By 11 the sun was back out.
Once again, Finn was a very good boy. Sweet and a quick study.
I continued to mow the lawn, until it was time to meet Jenny and the boys for a Mother's Day Brunch.
The place was packed and the service was very s l o w , but the food was quite amazing.
I had many favorites...creme brule French toast, apple fritters and sweet potatoes.
A huge buffet...homemade biscuits and gravy, rice pudding, a couple salads, different kinds of scrambled eggs, ham, bacon, potatoes, soup and more.
Trying to get Finn and Coop to stop making faces was a challenge.
When we got home I was finishing the lawn...just about done when it started to rain and turned to hail. I got soaked and frozen. Put the horses in the barn and was a little concerned with the weather as they were wormed this morning.
By 5:30 the sun came out again, so I grained them and turned them back out for awhile.
I don't think they will be out for long.
Got a fire going in the kitchen.
Night all.
A very busy Mother's Day, for all, what changeable weather, here we have lovely sunshine, 23.5 C , about 72F,too good to stay inside. Greetings, Jean .

ReplyDeleteAloha
I would like to say that I cannot believe you saw snowflakes today, but with such crazy weather across the U.S. I totally believe it.
ReplyDeleteLoved the pic with the boys! I always enjoy visiting here. It feels so real, as you adapt to whatever nature is dealing at the time. Authentic, genuine, nothing artificially contrived. Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a Mother's Day you had! I'm just in a daze over those beautiful GREEN pastures!
ReplyDeleteCrazy Weather! Snow in MAY for goodness sake!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's day. Sounds like it was just perfect.
Apart from the weather, that is.
Well, I wish you had better weather for Mom's Day -- but you made the best of it as you always do!
