Today we finally got a field seeded down, and today I put out some more manure. Notice anything wrong with my tractor?
Well I did...finally...I have spread over half of our manure and harrowed many acres, but tonight as I was loading my last load I noticed something amiss.

Anyone see it yet?

Another Mother of a Day

We had a great day here celebrating Mom's day
Sheila & Art came down from Nackawic, Victoria & Brad came from Fredericton, Grandma came over from Hampton, and of course Jesse and Carrie were here. Stacy & Gilbert stopped in for a bit, and Kara brought her Nanny a present.

Stacy didn't stay long enough for the Mother picture, so we had to search the archives.

And Tanya didn't even come, so we had to search for a good one of her.

And we were happy to have Dan, who brought Katelyn along.

Spring Work


On Monday and Tuesday this week we were able to get a bit of our spring work done. Then it started raining again. Here I am spreading manure with the new spreader.


And here is my view from the tractor.


Catching Up

So you see why there has been no posts all week! We went to Ottawa 2 weeks ago, and stopped at a Costco in Quebec on the way home. Gotta love Costco and Quebec beer prices!

We left here Thursday, April 23rd, and went to a meeting in Sussex, then an open barn in Petitcodiac, then up to Sheila & Arts for supper. Then on to Tanya's for the night. Friday we drove up, stopped near Magog and picked up Mike & Taylor. Had a beer, or 2, with Chris, then on to Ottawa. We might have enjoyed a beer, or 2, again that night. Saturday we met up with Brigitte, checked out her house, and she came over for a beer can chicken, or 2. I think we had a beer then, or 2. Then a bottle of wine, or 2. I know it was 2 chicken.

Sunday was David's birthday..17..yikes..1 year till he is legal in Quebec. No matter, he has a good ID and is legal everywhere now. We went to Kelsey's for a birthday supper Sunday night, and gt a 20% discount because David works there. Cool. Good meal too.

Jim & Mary Anne took Monday off, so we went for a drive. It was 31 degrees that day, so I had to borrow a pair of shorts. We checked out the Rideau Canal, and some other nice places, on the way to Brockville, where we stopped for a beer. We missed the cheese place that Sarah wanted to see, as Jim was 100% sure it was closed. It was open. But we had a good day.

On Tuesday we met up with Kelly at her small animal clinic, then stopped at a number of farm equipment dealers, and after a really nice drive through rural Ontario and Quebec, we got to Greg & April's. We had a great supper with them, and a wonderful visit. No pictures though, because Greg is in such great shape, it would make me look bad. Like worse. I'm gonna start walking around the block again. Soon. Actually, no cameras were out. Your loss. He looks good.
