Yesterday we were in the 60's and spent the day on the new tractor setting up and filling new raised beds.

Today we have 6-8" of new snow.. no dirt in sight and going into a 3 day below freezing cold snap.

LOL... go home Polar Vortex.. you're drunk.

Pretty proud of the new green tractor ain't ya? Mr Pig didn't seem too impressed! You can have the snow

5.) Alex - 04/04/2016

Anyone that isnt happy with a brand new tractor aint someone I don't want know :P

Actually they were pics for the dealer on the day of delivery.

And yeah...we've gotten about 1 ft of snow from Saturday night till this morning.. and it's still coming down this morning.
Ahhhhh April.

6.) Swamp Fox - 04/04/2016

Nice pictures, Alex. Now you can get some work done and really clean up the place...LOL

We went from 73 (day) to 33 (last night, or really this morning) in two days. That's a little nippy for April, LOL, and it had been warmer Thurs and Friday. Got a little taste of what "in like a lion" means out on the lake Saturday and Sunday, too, but that's a story for another time...:wink



P.S. What do those chickens think they're gonna find scratching in snow up to their bellies? Optimists, huh?

7.) Alex - 04/04/2016

They were braving the wind and snow to trek to the barn where there's plenty of stuff to get at in the cow and pig stalls.

Gonna be 80 here today, I bet there are a couple of big ol sow bass lurking about a hundred yards from here, I'll talk to youse later.:wink

9.) Swamp Fox - 04/04/2016
