postheadericon Driveway Plans and 2nd Calf arrives

Little Blossom was born on April 29th!  She was born to a first time Mom and both are doing very well!  The weather hasn’t been very nice since she was born, but she is strong and gets around the muddy pasture just fine.  We had cool rainy weather and even some slushy snow fell on the first day of May.  When is it going to dry up?  The pasture is a mess of mud and water.  The good thing is that the grasses in the paddocks are growing well and we hope to turn them out to pasture in a couple weeks.  Meanwhile, we met with an excavator the other day and made plans to get a driveway put in around the pole shed, and add gravel to the rest of the drive.  He will also fill in dirt by the old house and build water runs to keep water away from the buildings and pastures.  The work will start in the next week or so and we are looking forward to the improvement!  The clay-like mud around there is very slippery.  In fact, we can’t even drive the tractor in the pasture right now.  So, a good driveway will be wonderful!  Now, let’s have some sunny May weather!
