Well the little girl is doing well. If you remember I rescued this pup when she was less than 2 weeks old. Her mother had bitten her tongue and split it in half. She was brought in to be put down and I asked the owner if I could have her if I saved her--well the little girl turned 15 weeks today. She is one retrieving machine.

I'm doing a lot of dog training. Planted some wildlife mix and milo on the dam of my duck pond. In another month I will be draining the pond and planting some jap millet and sorghum for future flooding.
Finally got a few days without rain so headed out saturday--hooked up the tiller onto the Kubota and went to work. I ended up planting 100# of a Spring Wildlife Mix and added another 50# of IC cowpeas to the mix. Planted several long strips. Finished with about an hour of daylight left--that night received 1/4 inch of rain and last night another 2" got dumped on the plot. Thankfully it is really flat so hopefully none of the seed got washed away.
The first strip is a curved plot that follows the contour of the creek that runs on my land. I tilled about 1/2 of my winter plot but left the rest to provide some good wheat/rye/oat seeds for the birds. It is only about 12 feet wide but around 150 yards long:
The second plot is the same mixture--again I left some of my winter plot.

i'm sure it will just be a matter of time before we go through the same thing. YUK--I found a dog louse crawling on my arm the other day and I itched all day long. I got up several times during the night thinking I had bugs on me:(
hope the treatements go well. Your welcome to take a trip to my clinic and we'll dip your entire family:)
good luck

sweet--I need to clear off some cedars on my place. What ever you fertilize those rocks with it seems to work pretty good. You need to get some seed down after a good rain--doubt you can do much discing.
very nice--now just keep taking pics as the plot progresses. You have some great lookin' land. I really like walking trail plot--I bet it gets lots of activity.
knowing where they will be for eternity will make their passing so much easier---93 years seems like a long time but in actuality it is just a small blip when compared to eternity. God Bless and will remember your family in prayers.

you guys are in the minority---a lot of mad dolphin fans right now for the team not taking Quinn. We'll see in a year or two if the guy has what it takes for the NFL.
I spray my own yard and use 2-4D for my broadleaf weeds. I just get it at Home Depot and it worked great. Killed all my clover, thistle, and dandelions from my yard. It took about a week for them to die.
