Little Fisherman

Mom repainted this little fisherman made by Grandpa Klemp, today he came to fish our pond.

Trails Planted 05-04-2016

I thought I had some before pictures of our woods trails after the logging operation last fall, but I guess I don't, they were tore up and rough to say the least. After 6 hours of Bobcat work, disking, dragging, planting and rolling they are in much better shape. Thanks to brother Phil for help planting; "Game Changer Clover" (Crimson Clover, Wizzard Canola, Yuchi Arrowhead Clover, White Clover Fixation Balansa Clover) and Kentucky Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass and these Fescues; Creeping Red, Firecracker, Jaguar, Screamer LS and Quest and Birdsfoot Trefoil. Now we need some rain to make them grow.

Valentines Day Visitors

We haven't seen turkeys for months and this afternoon about 2 :00 p.m. we had these visitors.  They seemed hungry and were picking up seeds under the feeders.
