Ow already.

Spring and summer are absolutely my favorite seasons. Swimming, grilling, fires, hikes.
Coffee on the front porch in the morning, watching the fog in the valley..it's pretty amazing.
All but the yard work...er..property work. Now THAT makes me yearn for a city lot.

I'm clearing brush right now..making a spot for the future hens. Their coop with be at edge of the yard/start of the field. Currently, it's a mass of blackberry canes and hedge rose.
Ow x 10.
My poor legs. I see commercials for "sexy summer skin" and I have to laugh.
Uh...how about scratched, scarred summer skin? Bleeding, scabbed summer skin?
That probably wouldn't sell enough self tanner. (Try clearing brush for 4 hours...that'll put a healthy glow on ya).
I'm dotted with neon bandaids. Michael thought it would help me stop bumping my hurt spots. Actually, I'm afraid I'm banging them more...that neon is damned distracting.

We had...a pig loose in the yard. A really big sow. This, after the stray goat trio.
I don't have the words to express how funny I find this!

My uncle dropped off a bucket of tiny chestnut trees...need to find somewhere to plant them. He also dropped off cucumber plants and some onion sets.
YAY more organic goodies! Boo more digging and rock picking!

I better haul my rear outside...no rain today, and no reason not to be cutting brush!

OH..have an amazing recipe for lemon cake to post later.
