Yeah, I've been having to water my garden for the last couple weeks. Just not right for this time of the year.

ground is drying up fast here, I spent 7 hours weed whacking the field on Saturday,, the yard is dry too. I dont water grass, I do think it is going to brown out early.
Not looking like we are going to have our normal soggy May. This is not good.

Yay! I'm getting my tomatoes planted!!! It was over 100 in the greenhouse yesterday!! We have an irrigation system for our raised beds, so I'm not worried about the rain.

We do water our grass.

Did start a fire this morning as DH feels colds allot.
Sun has not come out yet but almost warm.
I am happy the rain has not fallen as much.

My chicks have been eating the heck out of the weeds I give them. I gave them a big clump yesterday and they ate all the green parts off. Gave the 3 or 4 clumps today with a bucket full of mixed small gravel for grit.

I love that big outdoor area for the chickens! Safe and spacious!

Good Friday morning,
Wed. I got all the newly chipped wood chips hauled up to the coop run, the chickens are happy with it and I left a dirt bath area.

Yesterday I got all the dead stuff clipped, ya know after you prune in Jan. you dont really get all that is not alive until you can see it in spring. so the plum get a trim, the apple and pear looked good.

Have a great day

Wow, in just a couple hours the chicks stripped the weed leaves down to the center stems. Healthy eating!

Well, you have all warned me to wait a few weeks, but with the temperature getting up to 80 on Thursday, I'm getting these tomatoes in the ground. It will get too hot in the greenhouse. So, we shall see what happens. Might as well get the green beans planted as well. We will sow those directly into the ground. Always one grand experiment after another around here.

We picked up new sprinkler heads for the irrigation and will get that in before Thursday too. Lots of work planned. Then I'll probably just collapse in a heap.

I have the plants in the old banty coop.
Rain fell last night.
We did, James and I did get the back mowed last night.
Have not seen the 80 temp flashed here.
