Better days




We have never seen our back pasture mowed. A neighbor came down this weekend, and brush hogged it all down. He was tired of chasing his rouge cows through our thicket. No more scratches for him. Ha!  He also had an auger attachment on his tractor, and decided to dig holes for our garden fence posts.

A little driveway mowing and we found him up top, mowing that grass as well. Guess he was on a roll.


On more personal news, Large has graduated High School! He starts in a University (on a scholarship) in the fall!

Congratulation to Large, you and Hubby it's a team effort to raise kids. Does Large have a major picked out?

Aren't those unexpected acts of kindness wonderful...and humbling...sure does help in restoring hope-n-faith.

Phelan,

Congratulations Large, were all so proud of you. On to college, what are you planning on majoring in?

There's nothing better than a good neighbor to cut grass, and dig holes :-)

Hugs to you and yours,
Sandy
