Ginger Water

22 Aug

The sun shines. The temperatures are warm. We had a late snow storm in May. But now; it's Summer in all its glory. With the warmer weather the haying Season began for the Davis Farm. The farm boy took the reigns and haying was completed in two days. There wasn't much for grass. Low inputs to the fields and a cold Spring provided a low yield. The days dawned clear and warm. Perfect weather for haying. All hands were on deck. There was a flurry of activity at the last minute With the work comes preparation of food. Long days require nourishment.

No foot prints. . . yet. Clean. Our lives ... View Post
