I could use a couple of loads of manure for my vegetable garden.  Unfortunately I don't know of any dairy farmers near by.  Bummer about the calf, hope momma makes it.

Well we gave her another shot of penicillin today and she looked no worse today so I am encouraged a little . She  ate a little grain and drank half pail of water.  no fever yet either. She tried to stand today but did not make it.  We put a deposit on to pigs today and we get them on Friday.

  We are in the same boat here really dry. Who would of thought that after the amount of snow we received this winter.

What a GREAT week to be on vacation living on the Daisy Mae . Many many stripers have hit the deck and ALL slot release fish. We absolutely hammered them today .
Glad to say all our releases have been success, sad to say other boats have been releasing floaters :(
I will try and upload pics once I get to a land line by sunday

Continues to be very warm and dry here. We had a few sprinkles and a few VERY brief , but localized showers. It was a fair night, we went out on Oneida from 6 until 11. It was my first night time adventure and of course we forgot the flashlights. Luckily the running lights and our cell phones did the trick. There was plenty of light to navigate by. All fish came from 8 to 9:00.  Two pickerel, one 19 inch eye and a perch. Had a few bites after dark, but no hookups.

Yes very much needed. Maybe a frost in the next couple days too. What a wacky two weeks its been as it was 30's and snowing 2 weeks ago, then days of no precip and 80's. Nice job on the crawlers! Will have to get the little man out on the hunt this evening

1:05 am; OAT 32 degrees F....
 
Better half and I spent about an hour just before sunset covering all the new plants/flowers we planted this past weekend.  Certainly glad we took the time to do that after seeing the current temp.  Heck of it is, our area has no advisory/warnings of frost and/or freezing temps.  Go figure!
 
 

Get out the smoke pots (as in frost protection()).........  set up the sprinklers and cover the flowers, ole "Jack Frost" gonna do er again tonight.  
 
<32 degrees for my part of Penn's Woods and that extends as far south as Rt. 422.
 
Ma Nature is gonna have to talk to Jack..............  real soon!
 
I want summer like weather!

I had a talk with Ma Nature and summer will be back next week .....she promised it so get your Sun lotion ready!

We had to to cover all of our outdoor flowers and a few new shrubs but, we made it through the frost.  Thankfully, just tilled the veggie garden and only taters were put in.  Tomorrow, we plant 'maters', beans, turnips, kohlrabi, corn, etc. 
 
Yummy............

sorry to over run the welcome back ( I will tt it) but just realized.. First real rain in 3 weeks happening via T-storms.. Heard it has been driest spring since 18??... YIKES !!!!

Nothing but a stray sprinkle here. It is getting dry again

Clint we got some steady stuff last night, did you get it? Even a little lightning... It is extremely dry. Ma nature may reset herself after this spring in to summer transition.. I've already seen lightning bugs/fireflies

Had 3/10 of an inch in over a month.
Need rain BADLY

Can always count on you Jack!!! :)
