Today I fed the little chickens, they're still in the garage and will be until we think they're big enough to safely mix with the older chickens, if that time ever comes.
CP "helped" me mow the little area of lawn just outside the door. Even the small area was a lot of work, but it felt good. I love my reel mower.
I checked on the older chickens, they don't want to come outside, even though it is such a nice day. I picked a few up and pushed them out the pop door, but they looked around and went back in. Silly birds.
I put the cage over the peas. Something (and by something I mean quail) has been chewing them to stubs. Hopefully the cage protects the peas and they recover from their munching. CP didn't think I could move the cage, but I told him I was pretty strong. Afterward, he thought I was pretty strong too.
Here are the chewed on peas. Kind of sad looking.
I uncovered the asparagus, and found several coming up. I love spring.
I uncovered the artichokes, and I'm not sure any of the plants survived. I'll give them a few weeks and see if there's any sign of life, then I'll plant something else in that spot. The onions look good though.
I had lunch. Leftover stir fry on brown rice. I didn't post about it at the time, but it was really good. It was just olive oil, garlic, (would have had onions but I was out), carrots, broccoli, canned tomatoes, cashews, edamame, teriyake sauce, and a little curry.
I made bread.
While the bread was baking CP and I went back outside and worked on mowing a little soccer field in the top half of the big field. We're going to let the grass grow high around the edges to keep the ball from rolling where we don't want it, and also mow a maze into the bottom half.

1- Are you going to post a photo of the Soccer field all nicely mowed with boys on it?
2- So where did Caleb and Criscell find a house close to you?
It's rained so much that I need to go mow again. I've started on the maze too, though where I haven't mowed yet is so long that we'll have to get out a gas mower to mow it.
C&C found a house just a bit south of our old house. :)
