Piles of snow. Wonderful. All day yesterday it resolutely melted into the fields. Good snow.
Of course now I am watching Charlotte like a hawk for any signs of pregnancy.
Which belly do you think is the pregnant one. Charlotte is just over four weeks pregnant now. Maybe it is a little too early to tell. She is due on June 17. OK, it is too early to tell. A ways to go yet.
Once again I had Kupa’s tail brushing against the top of my head as he waited in the barn for the snow to leave. He will not move when I push through the feathery curtain but his head swivels down and he purses his beak at me.
Below you can see my summer table and seats, waiting beside the barn. Waiting for the sun to shine. We should call it the corner of Godot.
Good morning.
You all have a lovely day.

I’ve definitely had enough of snow for this year 🙂
I used to have some friends that were Sioux Indians, they lived just down the mesa from us, on the way to the Roubidoux canyon, they called March, The Time of the Tricky Moon, meaning lots of strange storms will blow in before the air finally settles into Spring.
Warmer weather heading toward you, should be there in two days. It has to make it across Nebraska and Kansas first…then you get it! YIPPEE!

Thank you – thank you -my bones need warmth.. and I shall never forget that march is the time of the tricky moon.. it makes perfect sense to me now! c
The house looks like modern sculpture. Crazy. Can’t really tell of course, but my money would have gone with the belly on the right. I think it might be a trick of the light though.
WOW – Wee the snow – loving your captures! Happy Day on the Farmy – thinking warm thoughts:)
I don’t comment too often anymore, Celi, because about all I can come up with is “WOW!” That second photo of the snow piled on the porch is really beautiful. So again for today “WOW!”
How pretty are the snowy textures in the second photo! Are you going to tell is which belly is which?
I wonder if it is the same in pigs? That is is their nipples pink up, that is how I could always tell if our cats were pregnant before the obvious fat tummy stage.
Love Leanne
well Charlottes nipples are getting very obvious though this may be too delicate an observation!
It’s a winter wonderland!
What a difference a few miles make! Here we got very little snow. The farmy got what, 5 or 6 inches? Further South of you got at least a foot. Now if only April’s showers actually do fall, we may start making headway after last year’s drought. Sounds good to me.
Great shots of the Cast, Celi. Like the rest of us, everyone seems ready for Spring to get here. TonTon even has his frisbee. 🙂
yup; have frisbee, will wait, spring come.. dog brain thinks in small sentences! will they let dogs on the train?.. c
Try the Sugar Mountain Farm blog to learn an easy visual check for pig pregnancy.
I love those guys too and thanks for the reminder, i shall pop over! c
Huh, even if they do get morning sickness, blessed pigs have it easy as far as length of pregnancy goes, don’t they!! Sugar, somehow I managed to look as if quads were on the way by 5 months on both occasions . . . and there still was a long way to go . . . . .
Snow . . . ack! 😛
What impressive snow. At least it’s bright and clean, unlike lots of grey weather and rain.
Glad to see that Big Dog has his coat back on these days!

Gorgeous photos. You give your animals such character in your posts. It is a joy reading about their endeavors.
