Rain Forest

 Greetings...

 from the land of soggy donkeys,

and daily drizzle.

We are all a little squirrely these days, with all of this rain...

 hanging on by our toes - waiting for sunny days to arrive.

Actually, around here, the squirrels outnumber humans by about four to one...marauding little birdseed thieves!

Amazingly, almost every day, the sun arrives for at least a couple minutes!

Today, finally, we get a break - no rain predicted until the weekend.

Despite the soggy ground, life goes on as usual.  

The horses get their morning grazing time.  

Forrest loves to keep an eye on them.  Just before I snapped this photo, he was eating grass (grazing) right beside Red.

Watch out!  Chester can't hold his licker!

This is the most lush spring we have ever had here on the farm - thanks to the ample rain.  Everything is blossoming; and the amount of new growth is astounding!

I started a new gardening project in front of Maven Haven that I will be able to show you in the near future.  Then, after this rainy season passes, I will be repainting her - from top to bottom - a complete makeover.

I might be guilty of creating work for myself.  Oh well... I sure have fun in the process.

Today's title promised a rain forest.  Here is our version:

Yup, he's a soggy doggy... and a happy one!
