And less than a week later, the snow is gone. The crocuses are in full bloom! And I heard the spring peepers!

Dizzy is in the backyard for her morning stretch. She is wistfully thinking about the grass on the other side of the fence. She and the cows are both off the field for now. Mud Season.

That slight green Dizzy is looking at is deceiving. Look at the mud out there – yuck. And look at my poor old apple tree. The new cows destroyed them before I noticed. Oh the lessons of farming. I’ve taken cuttings in hopes of keeping these old trees alive.
