Green acres

 This post is just .....'how it is today'...... for my friend in Hungary who has not seen it for more than five years.  


 This is the view from the road.   Poppy and Virginia, yesterday's calf, are the closest cows on the hill.
This is just a field.  Jake has been through it once, but, like the rest of the farm, none of it is planted yet.   No corn this year just soy beans and alfalfa if all goes well.
 This is Holly and Vinnie in the middle of the shot.   He was born this morning early.  They weren't close enough to get good pictures.  He is still trying to figure just exactly where the "milk bar" is located.
 These are some of my girls and their lambs.   They are growing so fast.   My special friend, Coco,  is on the far right.
 These are two of my little lawn mowers.   Willie and Johnny, I think..    No trimming is needed around the sheep pasture.   When the lambs were real young,  they went in and out of the pasture on this side whenever they pleased.
 My handsome twins.   Campbell in front and Carrie to the left of him.   Their mom is to the left of Carrie and back some.
This is the 'forest' and the dog yard.   Grass needs mowing, for sure, but can't mow when it doesn't stop raining.    This afternoon might be a possibility, but I am off to my knitting group.   Maybe it will be dry enough for a little cutting before I go.

To Peti:   Hope the flooding of the Danube that you mentioned is less than expected.  Our big river has been quite well behaved this year even though we have gotten so much rain.

Beautiful pictures! We have read of the Danube floods too, this morning, and hope your friend is safe and dry.

It must be great to be surrounded with so much open land....of course, except when it needs mowed ;-)
