Tractor Love!

I have spent a good part of the weekend riding shot gun on the tractor. There has been much clearing of tall grass and blackberries along the fence line between the back of Michael's property and the river. The blackberries have been choking out some of the smaller trees, and encroaching on the hay field. Not good.

I am relieved that the weather has cooled down. I love the heat, but it has been entirely to humid. I have been drinking lots of extra water. I even made peppermint iced tea yesterday. Perfect in this hot weather.

The chicks are teenagers now, and they are becoming comfortable in their outdoor coop. The 2 smallest are Bantams, and They have the featheriest feet. It is hilarious to look at. I will try and get a picture to post.

I leave on vacation this Wednesday. I will be flying out to Rochester to see Diana and her new home. I will help her pull down wall paper, paint, and do many other fun home improvement things. I come home the 20th, so we have a lot of catching up and working to do in a short time. It will be nice to see her again.

Well, off to do dishes, clean up my space, and get ready for work tomorrow.
