Thank you Texas Bred. Thought I would stop by and see what was going on.
I bet those little dogs that were so attached to people just sit and wait to see who is coming through the gate. Just leaving the house for a little while will make one think you have been gone a year.
It will be fun.
I think you are right Jogeephus. Today, it was 68 *F and for Ken, that is around 20*C. Ha-ha-ha!!! The wind has been ripping it up from the North, and today it changed and blew out of the South.
I went outside and did a few things and go the cutter ready to mow down those dang Creeping butter cup down. Once they move in, they continue to spread. I have read that they grow where the land is not taken care of, and that ain't so. I keep it limed, and fertilized. I have water that comes down from about 2000 acres above me, and I am sure that when the ditches get over the banks, it brings everyone of those little seeds down and keeps planting them back. I am just going to mow them down a few times so the cows can graze the clover. I call it the weed from Hel-l because is sucks the nutrients out of the soil.
I remember mowing it in a field one time where it had got tall and it turned the tractor yellow and I felt like I was coming down with the flu because of the nasty pollen. I wore a mask
over my mouth and nose when I went back to finish the field. It won't take it no time to re-bloom and I will have to mow it again. Probably less than two weeks. I can't stand the mess. I guess the only way I can get rid of it is to move.
