Today it rained. Big time. And since it rained nearly every day for about a week before that, we're WET out here! The ground is saturated and there is mud and standing water everywhere. I'm going to have to mow my pastures about a month earlier than usual. And if any of this sounds like complaining, it's not. The pastures are emerald green. It looks like Ireland out here! I did a weed reconnaissance yesterday to see what I'm up against, and I was thrilled to find that there is so much grass it's actually choking out a lot of the weeds! Now granted, the weeds that are there are enormous and extremely healthy, but there are a lot less of them than usual. Woohoo!!
