Combine weather


The combines are rolling
the pigeons are flying and
the cows are grazing
what a beautiful evening

New crop


We have been eating them already for a while
this time the whole row got dug up
they are big and not hollow

Cow picture

This morning was an important day for our Amazing cow Laura

She wasn't milked for about 20 hours,
so her udder looks picture perfect

Top line grooming

Feet in the right position


This is it
On the computer she will get a different tail and a different background
but other then that it should be like this pic

Haircut

Coming Tuesday they will picture one of our cows
she already got a haircut

Cherries


Preserving cherries for later
makes me think of my oma.
Cherries were her favourite and she had a big Cherry tree
in her garden.

Proverbs 10:
He who
gathers crops in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.

Rain

We have lots of rain and high temperatures
The corn is high and there is water in the fields
This is a field up the road from us

Listowel Dairy 4H

Marc showed his calf Alpha in Listowel

Last instructions and a look at his clothes

He was second in showmanship, out of 5


Beside us they were getting ready for the horse show
I think it looks funny, the bows on the tails

Grazing

Our cows have been able to go outside for 3 straight days
They don't visit the robot as often as we like during the night .
A bit of rain at around 4AM would be appreciated

0-1

I was ready to take a picture of everyone cheering


but it wasn't meant to be
even the flag looks sad
