Seven tenths inch in the gauge as I write this on
Thursday, May 27. The rain started in the night and is predicted to
continue for the day today and into the night. It will start those
seeds lying in dry soil, soak up some of the surface dryness and help
the soil into a better condition for the next hot dry wind we seem to be
getting so much of this year.
The
last of the spring's calves are being born, most recently in the rain
this morning, so a little bedding will need to be spread for their
comfort. A little extra work, but they are hardy healthy little buggers
and will be just fine. When I checked this morning, several were
playing, running full tilt from one end of the pasture to the other,
tails in the air like flags. They have very good tree protection and
will be fine. We are grateful for the rain.
