Dave ~ Bruiser ~ Mac/Chokes/Meatballs ~ Pulled Taffy


Good 45º sparsely cloudy morning. Should have sunshine for the rest of the week...


Yesterday stayed dark, cloudy, gloomy, and cold all day..

Dave didn't get here until about 5pm and did some brush-hogging.... til it got dark....


He has to finish this part of the pasture straight in front and then do the upper pastures on the left... I am assuming he'll be here today....


The Bruiser was out hunting yesterday...
Thankfully he didn't bring home any trophies!
