One half inch of rain does the world of good to a farm. Our fields are green, while at the Jay's farm, where one tenth of an inch fell, their fields are still brown. Our farm looks great. Friday evening during our Gator ride around the farm we saw several herds of deer, all looking healthy. Of course, we are still very dry. The pond is small and the creek is not running, but we have had no trouble with any of the wells.
What you can see is just the beginning of orange and yellow in the trees, so you know the autumn season will soon be with us in full force. I put the wool blanket on the bed Friday, in the middle of the night. The nights are perfect sleeping temperature, especially when you have a wool blanket on the bed and the windows wide open.
And we have a new gate. Almost two years ago a new set of fence posts were installed, but it took until yesterday to move the old gate. Now it looks and functions very well. Dave and Alan installed it and came to tell us yesterday late morning. These folks are always working. The list keeps coming, but now the gate is complete, except Ken will do the painting. We are making progress.
