- HayPatch, UT - The annual planting of the garden --
peppers, tomatoes, squash -- all made it in the ground shortly
before Memorial day. (See what has been planted in the right hand
column of this page.)
The planting was delayed a couple of weeks for several reasons
including a very wet Spring which kept us from getting the garden
tilled & furrowed and waiting on the tractor to be completely
repaired. Not to worry, though, as the veggies should have
ample time (and water!) to properly produce this year. |

- HayPatch, UT - Sweaters? Blankets? Carpets? Where will it end?
There are so many uses for this wool. The sheep are happy to be rid
of it, it seems. Two year's of growth and they're finally free of
their fluffy exterior. They went from rotund balls on four sticks to
rather svelte weed-eating machines. Certainly when the temps get
into the 100s this summer, they will be baaa-ing a sigh of relief
that their fluff is adorning someone's loom.
If you missed the sheep shearing and can't wait
for the wool to grow again,
here's a video
to tide you over until next time.
