Waterlogged

As I sit typing this post the outside air temp is 49°F. Yesterday it hit 61°F - the "normal" (whatever that is anymore) temperature around here this time of year hardly ever breaks 20°F.

The cattle are getting ready venture out to the pasture to graze, with a bit of extra equipment. We've had two inches of rain since the New Year began, six days ago. My chickens are starting to get webbing between their feet. The fleeces still on the backs of my sheep are turning into felt. I've noticed that the goats are eying the pool toys stored in the barn loft, and thinking maybe they should learn to balance and twirl beach balls as opposed to pulling carts. And I've caught myself with a strange craving for fresh fish.

If this keeps up, I'll have to rethink my entire religious perspective. Maybe take up a new hobby. Ark building ....

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
