Spring finally came. Yesterday was our first real outdoor day since fall. We slept in and had a late breakfast. It was sunny and in the low forties and we thought we should take advantage of the nice weather
as the rest of the week is predicted to be wet and cloudy. We even found some rhubarb coming up in the garden.
We got out and shoveled a truckload of manure out of the chicken barn and spread it on the garden. We fixed the wire on the chicken barn windows and replaced a missing pane on the milk house where some of the hens had been getting in to lay eggs. We also scythed down last year's raspberry canes.
P skipped her nap so that she could join in on the outdoor fun. She loves to visit the "girlers" in the chicken barn and feed them corn.
P had her bath and then we had dinner. We were all chatting and then noticed that P was very quiet.
The boys went out in shorts to play badminton after dinner - with a little snow still on the ground!
