The weather has been so odd this year. It was cold and snowy most of April. We were afraid to do our planting for our garden until recently. We are getting a late start! We've had to plant in between rain and storms this month. Finally everything is in the ground, and sprouting up like crazy. Most years I have barely been able to help because of horrible allergies and asthma. The doctor has me on so much medicine this year I have hardly had any trouble at all, minor trouble compared to being at ER or emergency walk in getting shots and breathing treatments. This year I have been able to help planting, and mowing grass! Amazing....
I can't wait to start finding actual food on our labor of love.
The neighbor dog comes down to visit us every time we are there. I have named her Daisy May, I think her real name is Rose. (Which doesn't fit her at all) We had old marshmallows in the back of the truck that needed tossed out, she jumped up on the back of the truck grabbed the whole bag and was trying to run off with it. Deaira was chasing her down to get the bag away from her so she wouldn't choke on plastic. I was laughing so hard at the site of this. LMBO
Deaira put the marshmallows out and Daisy May tried a couple and decided the rest needed to be buried around the property. She took a mouthful down to the water spring and buried them in the bank, then she took another mouthful and buried them right next to the potatoes in the garden.. what a silly dog! That must've been hard work because she drank some water then laid down in the shade and watched us while we were working hard.
Last week when we left the property we saw a snapping turtle close to the road. It would've been smashed if we hadn't done anything. So we stop and I jump out stop the couple cars coming in the other lane and start trying to grab this thing! Most turtles you grab between their legs by the shell, well this wasn't working. The teens in the car I stopped were cracking up and hollered out grab it by its tail. (Now why didn't I think if this, we used to watch turtle man all the time) I gave them a thumbs up, then went in for the tail... woo-hoo that turtles mine now! As I took it back to the truck to put it in the bed they drove by and said good show. The next car said that was great entertainment and asked if we were going to eat it...LOL nope we have to save it and take it down to the river.
Glad I could be of such great entertainment to everyone! We put it down by the river and she was off, glad to get away from me. (Sorry no pictures or video of that)
