Made a trip to the farm today, ponds are still down, this one about 2-1/2' low.

Cut a little firewood, seeded some wildlife plots & picked up some sticks from the picnic grounds.

Dinner (lunch for you city folks

) consisted of pork steaks, fried potatoes 'n' onions & steamed, buttered cabbage (in the foil wrap).

Brought the firewood home & replentished some of the supply.

Looks like you had a really nice day AND a picnic.

Have the ponds come up any since last summer?

Have the ponds come up any since last summer?

Maybe 5-6" is all!

That's not so good, is it.

I hope it starts raining for you soon.

That looks like a nice property. It's nice to see the longer days and warmer temps. We had snow here today but only an inch or so.

HEY!!!!! That looks like a great place for a springtime garden tractor cruise!! :thumbs:

Nice to be out and about.
Wishin' spring weather would hurry and get here.
They are calling for rain / icy rain / snow here the next 4 days and below normal temps at least the next 7 days.

Is your pond spring fed ?

Thanks for letting us tag a long with what looks to have been a great day! :thumbs:

Your day makes me homesick for spring! We have at least another six weeks to wait, but I feel happy for you having a wonderful day--- enjoy every one that comes along.

Glad you got to get out and check things over. Lunch looks delicious!

Looks like a nice little get-a-way spot there. How far away from home? Thanks for sharing!

No springs, just ground run-off. Two ponds on the farm, the other one is 4-5' low, doesn't have enough "watershed", but it was the only decent place to put it! This one was built in 1965, the other one a few years later.

30 miles from home, my folks bought the 190 acres in the mid-1960's. No one's lived there for the last 10 years, gravel stops at the house, dirt road the rest of the way in. ~~ Lowell
