The wild plums are finally blooming. It sure seems late for them but I guess they won't freeze this way. I could make a fortune if I could bottle the smell of these plums. My was it sweet. Taken 5/19/2008.

Dry

This is all the moisture that Mother Nature could manage out of the latest "storm." Less than an inch of snow. Boy, we could really use some significant moisture around here. Taken 4/21/2008.

Dry, Brown

The dry, brown landscape that has taken over this spring. It's really getting me down. Nice picture though. DISCLAIMER. My Darling Wife took this picture. I'm having a hard time taking any pictures of the dry landscape. I guess if I don't take pictures, it doesn't exist. Taken 4/6/2008.

Bulls

Four new bulls that I bought a couple of weeks ago. Angus bulls from some little breeders in the area. They were really nice bulls that were not overfed or gussied up. A lot of the big guys over feed their bulls knowing that fat can hide a lot of problems. Not a problem with these. Taken 3/30/2008.

Bum

Had a bum around here for about a week or so. A twin that the mom wouldn't accept. Grafted him on a two year old that lost a calf. He was a cute little guy, that's for sure. Taken 3/12/2008.
