Much to be thankful for!

What a busy week!  We are very thankful that Quentin (safely!) finished up strip-tilling and putting fertilizer on all our fields.  He has a couple fields left for neighbors that want to use his services (or possibly trade services), but is definitely in the home stretch.

The cows are busy calving.  Most have been born with no problems, but Quentin and Paul did have to pull a calf earlier this week.  It was a stubborn one, but has survived thus far!  Paul had to bottle feed him one day and is still having a few problems with momma refusing to let the calf suck.  Paul pulled another calf this morning, but it went a little easier.

My refrigerator.  Note to self: Don't get Noah's milk and the calf's milk mixed up!
We have a chance of rain in the forecast Monday night-Tuesday.  Now that the fertilizer application is done we are really hoping for some moisture to settle the dust!
