Spring is is the air?

Well I certainly hope so! It has been a lot warmer for the last few weeks but our weather will sneak up on us and the next thing we'll have snow again. The days are really wonderful as it is warm and sunny. We have, so far, had a lucky fire season this year as there have not been many runaways. The grass in the block-burnt areas is quickly turning green and the lawn mower will soon be taking strain on our lawn.

Family spent a few days with us and so we caught up on news and all had a pleasant time. Nev took some fantastic photo's and has added to his vast collection of pix.


"The Country Wagon Company" has produced the first wagon and material (plus a mountain of sawdust) is being prepared for the production of lots more. They will be available in several colours and I'm sure kids will enjoy them. Take a look at the picture below.

We have a Longcrested Eagle that patrols our telephone line every day.  He is one of our most beautiful birds on the farm.
