April - May
2010 -
Spring seems to have zipped right
by. Summer is here! We've had plentiful rain and now
the temps are climbing. First cutting of hay is put up.
Ben's keeping busy bush-hogging the pasture. Check out his
fancy "new" tractor - only 40 years old. He's a John Deere
man now. We had a great visit with friends
Eric Wanman and
Rodney Hopwood (Idaho) when they made their annual circle
through here in April. Thanks to all of you who have brought
dogs for Ben to train. Our friend Edna Grabow (Wyoming)
stayed with us the first of May while she was on dog business here
in Oklahoma. She also purchased a couple of our Katahdin ram
lambs. Doug and Maria Lawson, Alberta, were here the first
of May working with Leslie on behalf of the
American Veterinary
Chiropractic Association (Leslie's day job).
Congratulations to Kenny Graves (Kansas) on the purchase of Dan.
Keep cool, Ben and Leslie |
