A beautiful summer day in Wisconsin

The hay field behind the garden came down the other day.  Elton cut it and then raked it the next day.  Don't I sound like I know what I am talking about?  It will be used for his son's cows.  We will be the recipient of the feeding of the cows when we get the meat in our freezer.  Our neighbor got a 1000 lb. bale of straw for us. We took that apart and spread it over the entire garden including the 24+ raspberry plants.  Hopefully, this will reduce the amount of weeds growing up in our garden.  Our neighbor had given us a wheelbarrow full of straw but we had him get us a full bale.  We sure got our exercise spreading it around.  The plants are all doing GREAT!!! We are amazed at our Great God and His awesome creation.

  1. Looks good! Isn't it fun to live in the country? We love it when we can get to the farm, except for the black flies. Do you have them?
