RE: As Spring Progresses

in #spring6 years ago (edited)

Amazing Blog! I thoroughly enjoyed all of it Carey! Thank-you for taking the time to share that with us 💜 it's amazing that the dugout is bone dry! There's SO much water there this spring. That's nuts. I LOVE looking at your garden. It's so pleasing to witness all that growth! And, the rocks! So good. The babies take the cake though! Your little guys are just the sweetest! I wanna kiss every one of the little young adolescent chicks faces! Haha!! They're adorable. It's always so nice to connect with you! How did your son do on his drivers test?

Thank you so much for your wonderful words. I have been having such a hard time getting blogs off lately. I really apprecate your comments.

Yes the dugout will be dry until next spring. The good news is it is holding water for longer each year so we hope eventually it will be able to hold water one day. If steem goes through the roof like they say then we will buy a liner and that will solve the problem.

Our garden is coming along. I will have get to your blog to see how yours is progressing. The rocks and pieces of wood are to keep the cat from using it as her bathroom box. We are having to cover it every night so she stops doing that.

The babies are what keeps me going. They are so cute. We have another duck that is sitting on some eggs. So in a month to a month and a half we should have more ducklings. We may have more baby goats then as well. We had some gals that are showing signs that they might have kids. It is always changing out here.

My son goes for his test on Monday. I will keep you posted.

Oh! Today is test day. I hope it goes well. And, no biggie if it doesn't. Is your son 16? But, he's not living with you? I am curious about that but I don't want to pry either. Funny how function turns to beauty. Silly kitties!!! The rocks offer minerals to the soil and plants too. Win-win! I love that. I am enjoying the baby geese! Such sweet little fluffs with their protective families guarding them. We live near the Western Irrigation District canal. Bow River water is diverted to the south/ eastern part of the province. It's such a dessert down here! What would you use for a dugout liner? Would bentonite clay work? It's abundant down here in the badlands, but i don't know if you can find it up north.

Yes it was test day. He didn't pass. The guy testing him was pretty picky. We alsoforgot to partice all the parts of parking on a hill. Some things have changed since I took my test. I tried to get on steemit yesterday and I wasn't able to. I did respond to part of this message on discord.

Yes cats are interesting animals. Our cat comes from a previous home and I don't think it was a good place. She is happy here. I am glad that we can provide her a good home in her later years. However her digging up my garden is a point on tension between us.

Geese, I have never been around geese. I hear they can be quite mean. They are cute as babies though. I have heard many stories of geese chasing people.

We would gladly use bentonite clay however finding some here is not easy. That would be our first choice. It is so much more natural. So we would have to get some from the south.
