Daffodils are already in full bloom here - we've had a spell of colder weather but now back on the track to our favorite - HOT weather. 'Nuther difference in us FG - my household loves hot humid weather! Isn't it wonderful that different folks can have different situations? Spent some of this weekend burning off and first tilling of garden plot - anticipation building for garden fever. Looking forward to the exciting sounding events surrounding recent birthing day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-71773226193167263762007-03-05T12:16:00.000-06:002007-03-05T12:16:00.000-06:00Yes, my tulips are starting to poke through the gr...Yes, my tulips are starting to poke through the ground, and my johnny jump ups are already blooming! We're having crazy weather in CO Springs, too. We go from 50s and 60s to snow within 24 hours. <BR/><BR/>Congratulations!

We did have 4 of the 11 (all from different ewes; however the 5 ewes were bred to same ram, which I understand is where that gene comes from) having inverted eyelids; so we clipped them this weekend and went ahead and gave them their 1st shot. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the recommendation on Storey's Guide to Raising Sheep, we've been devouring it since it came this past week.<BR/><BR/>Crazy weather though - St. Louis is experiencing the same thing. I haven't yet gotten the 7 quart dutch oven; however, I did have the crockpot going all weekend and you are so right - having to be in the barn and never knowing what will happen it's nice to know that dinner is already done when one finally gets back in!<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the rest of the remaining lambs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-32451894533896806332007-03-05T04:42:00.000-06:002007-03-05T04:42:00.000-06:00Yay!
