Today we took a drive to the dam up above us. It is such a nice place to go I could live up there. We only saw a snake, grouse and wild rabbit. I have not seen a wild rabbit in years unfortunately I have seen two snakes in two days.
It was not as nice today not overly cold but not really sun tanning weather either.
I think by the end of the week all the lavender will be harvested it willnbe interesting to see If we get a second crop on some of it.
Well I am off to sleep have a wonderful night pleasant dreams.

Summer time
This summer is flying by. The days start early and end way too soon.
We have been busy so very, very busy.
Farm work never ends.
We have been painting our back room.
Ahh we have made such a mess. I hate it. Our car port looks like a dump. Everything from the room we are painting had to come out and the carport is where we stored it.
Well I am off now to do more farming.

Sunday Morning was so peaceful
Our weather was beautiful. We accomplished so much but by bed time we dropped into bed. I was absolutely done, finished, exhausted.
We moved Buddha heads. We painted gates. We watered. We built and welded steel poles for satellite dishes. We kept moving all day.
