Good Morning
First calf of the season on the ground, a bullock, red like his mother. Dexter throw small calves. I needed to move him to another pasture and he is small enough for me to lift. The 80 to 100 lb calves were getting too hard for me to handle without assistance. Looking forward to making a variety of cheeses this season.
No nectarines or peaches this year. Enjoyed the blooms signaling spring had arrived. A few blooms survived the 22 degree night, last night was 16 degrees none survived. Typical, I consider them ornamentals for a short bloom in spring and beautiful fall color.
