Hats and sunglasses against a cool sun.
Tons of sun. Clothes on the line. Animals all outside. Gardens planned. New feed in big reusable drums.
Pigs and cows transported to spring quarters. The calves wheeled across the way. Doors wide open to the cool bright sunshine. Ducks nibbling on the smallest of new shoots. Molly in her farrowing suite (she has a good few weeks to go yet but she needs to get used to the ducks in case I don’t get them shifted in time).
The barns doors opened wide.
Then this morning I awake to this.
And it is still snowing. Heavily.
Really snowing now. I have too much to finish today to be dealing with snow again!

Wow. Nature and her nasty bait-and-switches. I did not see that coming…in fact was about to comment on the glorious sunshine. All that comes to mind, quite lamely I admit, is a poster I had as a 7 year old of a kitten hanging onto a rope and the words Hang in there Baby.
Oho, you brought some Melbourne weather home with you… ‘If you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes’. Trouble is, you *did* like the weather and this change is the bit you don’t like. And have you noticed how it’s always the bad stuff that hangs around, and the nice stuff is here today, gone tomorrow?
Crazy weather. I loved the picture of the chickens in their giant ‘coop’ with the sun streaming through the windows behind them.
Me too: )
Oh dear, I am so sorry you have to go through more snow. We had a light dusting last night which I am sure is a remnant from your storm. Last week, just after we got back from Spain, we got a note from the guy we rent a house from in Arizona, mentioning that the house has become available as of March 19…I actually gave it a second thought!
The old adage, “March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb”, doesn’t seem to be too far off its mark, eh? Happy St. Patrick’s Day, too!
Oh yes St Patrick’s day – I had completely forgotten. Though no one celebrates St Patrick’s day quite as exuberantly as the Americans ! Lovely
Opposite here….a lovely cool change comes in, with a little rain, and a feeling of relief from the heat and the dry….. then the next day, temps up into the mid 30s C again (80-90 F). Love the pics of the animals soaking up the sunshine.
Mid 30’s is so hot
Oh yes!
and look at how big that little piglet is! and your photos …I could not believe what you woke up to! EEEEEK!
Conversely we are heading into winter but similarly I am appreciating every bit of sun and warmth on autumnal offer 🌞
OMG! it looked so fantastic yesterday, like here in Cataluña. I hope it goes back to sunshine tomorrow.
Oh Cataluna must be gorgeous in the spring. Is it springy?
Hopefully the last days of our hot dry summer. It is getting longer each year. Northern NSW Australia
Right at the moment I feel like our winters are getting longer.
We had rain, instead of snow, even though we’re north of you. Today was the South Side Irish Parade and there were lots of people walking from the Metra Station west to the parade route. I’m sure they were enjoying the sunny, if chilly, day.
I thought the snow lovely
Bleh! I am sure you are as ready for Spring as I am. I am over this chilliness, and we have had barely the flake of snow. I can only imagine shifting farm animals about in the snow.
Oh no ….!
