So....I've got to say it's been a beautiful sunny week here in Southern Oregon. I've had a chance to get out into the garden for several days in a row, and have been pruning away. There are two long rows of Grapes and Berries, and I've been cutting them way back and getting ready to really clean them all up good and cover the rows in between with STRAW!!! Each year I think I'll do a good job on the garden, and I get busy doing something else...a perfect example of that was today...I went over to the barn to get a long handled spade...(small shovel)...and Butterscotch was 'talking to me over the fence'...so I grabbed the grooming bucket and walked into the pasture with her, ZuZu and Kahlua (The Arab)...Kahlua wanted to be groomed at the same time, so I took Butterscotch into the round pen and curried and brushed her really well....she of course tried to groom me too...luckily she didn't nip at me like she tries to do sometimes....she hasn't totally figured out that I don't need to be groomed at the same time. So after about 20 minutes of that, I went back over to the Garden to work...there are just too many fun things to do here to keep me busy!!! Hah!
