I wrote about the peepers in past posts but yesterday was a new milestone in peeper decibel levels. On a walk to the back pond we were able to sneak up really close to a group of them in a wetland. They were silly loud, I mean LOUD!! But it was kind of like listening to a song on the stereo that you love. You want to just crank it up. It was flat out wonderful.
We came back from that walk and unloaded a truck of horse manure on the freshly tilled area in the garden. Course the little dog wanted to grab some "pucks" and we had to keep her at bay. After all that frozen cold ground this winter manure is now a taste treat for a beagle mix.
Went into town today and it was in the 80's. Kind of winter to summer in one jump. It is supposed to cool down again courtesy of the storm coming east that whacked Denver.
The old unoccupied homestead we own down the hill has a sea of daffodils in bloom. They seem to spread each year. What a delight to see all that yellow and green. Of course the birds are now in heaven. They are feasting on the grubs and worms tilled up in the garden and crawling out of that composted manure.
Eat up friends and then sing.
