Mowed

We got the Bad Boy back this past week.  I got right with the mowing and cleaning up of the grass and weeds.  I saw five snakes as I mowed.  They headed "for the hills" as I made passes mowing.  Snakes are always my biggest fear with an unkept yard.  BUT we are good now.  

Tho the sky looks like rain is coming, we got none.  It's been at least 6 weeks since any real measurable rain.  We are hoping that a "cold" front later this week will bring us some.  Mornings now are cool and pleasant and afternoon temperatures are in the low to mid 90s.  Hope the front brings lower temps!  Fall is in the air!

Goodbyes And What Happened?

Saying goodbye to five of our 2021 steers next week.  Always a sad time for us but we have given them a good chance for success and good early "calfhood."  Now they head into the economy.  

What happened to our yard?  Critters of all sorts have moved in!!!!!  Well, the Bad Boy Mower went belly up about seven weeks ago.  It has been very reliable for 6-7 years until it died.  We are scheduled to have it back tomorrow and I'll be cleaning up the lawn mess after that.  It's tough to sit and mow for three plus hours. yet will be a pleasure to get "control" again.
