April:
May:
Two steps forward, one step back. March brought needed moisture. It also brought mud—inside.
April saw the
picket pile go down a little, the hedge get trimmed.
May got off to a
rough start. The first step backward
happened when a used oil filter in the back of the pickup fell over and leaked oil. I cleaned that mess up on arrival at the
farm. Then I took a little tour of the
premises.
The plastic tabs
holding the storm window broke and a wind gust took the storm window down. One pane of glass survived. The other two had to be picked up a piece at
a time.
Two trips to Hugo
got the glass replaced in the frames, but not on the house. Can’t put the storm window up until the
windows get washed, for heaven’s sake.
Meanwhile the
wheat got off to a good start with March and April moisture.
And the summer
fallow got a good going over, with a little help from the neighbors.
The sea of
purple that doubles as the farm yard awaits the mower and warmer weather.
Up next, the window
and siding update.
