More of the Same

Until late afternoon, it was very drab and downright cold.
I picked some daffodils before going out to do morning chores.  
Most of the year we have fresh flowers on our kitchen table.


 After the stalls were cleaned I spent a little time moving more brush

 and then we went in the house for awhile.
 I had to run an errand and took Little Wonder and Phoebe along for the ride.
Someone else had the same idea.

 We stopped at the Town Park on the way home and did a little exploring.


After we got back we went outside again.
(The garlic is growing like crazy).




I finished my book and started listening to another, which put me right to sleep.
Then, I don't know where I've left off and have to back track.  I'm better off reading.
Gary had a long workshop today and when he got home he started attacking 
the garden by the studio.
He has not had much time for that lately.
I made a simple dinner.
Salad, organic chicken and sweet potatoes....(and leftover pie).


 My turn for evening chores.  As soon as the girls saw me they came up to the front paddock.


 The sun sure improved this part of the day.

 The pond will probably be gone by tomorrow morning.  
For the next 7 days we should have temps between 60 and 72.
I'll take it.


 The sunset was gorgeous!
Night all.

  1. We have precisely four daffodils :( they didn't all bloom. I was sad. Still it was a start - the garden was awful when we moved in. We have more tulips though! I am jealous you have fresh flowers on the table all year round!

  2. Hi Lori, I've not been around for a while and I enjoyed the peaceful visit to your farm. I love Little Wonder on your header. Believe it or not; our horses come when we whistle now too. At last! It's taken eight long months to get them to do this. Glad your weather is warming up. We're entering winter.

  3. We had the same kind of day here in Virginia. I went to bed early to warm my feet. Soon, I'll be able to take my socks off...Again!

    Enjoy your Sunday!

  4. Looks like the dogs enjoyed their day. Your place is looking good. Everything is growing so well. I've got a lot of cleaning up to do around here too. Enjoy the weather.
