Daisy Runs & Mum Patch
Stacey backed the Mule out of the barn and I let Daisy out of her stall.
Daisy ran around the Mule then Stacey told her to jump in the back of
the Mule and she did.
Stacey
drove to the mum patch and I took a picture of the patch. Regina and
Linda had worked two evenings to pull the weeds that were too close to
the mum plants for me to use the tiller.
The
mum plants have really jumped in size and it is time for them to be
clipped. Linda will take care of that with battery powered grass
clippers in the upcoming week she says. After that I will need to till
the entire patch. There were some guys standing inside the fence looking
at the mums, so I asked what they were doing. They said they were from
the University of Louisville and were using their equipment to see if
there were any prehistoric dwellings or burial sites underneath where
the road was going to be built. After a few minutes of talking, Stacey
and I went across the creek to let Daisy run around the hay fields.
Daisy
seems to be enjoying taking a swim in the creek to cool off. Sometimes,
I wish I could join her. We let her run the rest of the way around the
field and then loaded her back in the Mule and headed across the creek.
I stopped to take a picture of the guys working in the mum patch.
As
I was stopped and talking to the woman, Steve Riddle pulled up and
talked a while before going on his way to school near Albany.
