Friday's temperatures reached 70 degrees and I was in heaven.
I worked in the yard, cleaning up debris from winter...
and began the big chore of pruning grape vines and other vining plants
on the garden fence.
The snow has finally melted, and if we have a week without rain -
as is predicted-
much of our mud should begin to dry.
and everyone got involved.
Chester was a little woozy from too much green beer!
Of course, the snacks were green as well!

And though the temperatures on Sunday never got much above 40,
we seized the day and took the dogs and the four-legged Littles for a hike.
with Red trying as hard as he could to get a nibble of the grass beneath him.
At one point he just put on his brakes and refused to go, so Hubbs took charge of him.
We hiked back to the tent in the woods,
This was my view...
I love this field, our Field of Dreams, in the middle of the woods.
It's so peaceful here and a great place for spotting wildlife.
This was also Freedom weekend for the black barn kitty triplets.
The door to their stall was opened several inches,
(some of the chicken wire around the top was peeled back as well)
and they are now allowed free access to anywhere they choose to go.
The funny thing is... they stay pretty close to their home base.
I am sure as the weather warms up a bit, they will become much more adventurous.
At least I know that they identify the barn as their home now.
And lastly.....

We collected some grapevines this weekend from a fellow gardener and I'm planning on making a wattle fence around the veggie garden. Another project, working toward my dream garden.
Moonbeam's such a good boy. That shedder looks like it does an amazing job!
Enjoy the blue skies!

Looks like the LIttles are waiting their turn.
My donkeys don't wait on me. The rub and rub on all the oak trees as best they can. It's just up to me to get their backs and bellies. I'm going to take a look at your shedder. I'm always on the lookout for the next best thing.
