Do not drive through puddles or yah just might drop into a sink hole

They use that hot patch crap here. As soon as it gets wet the pothole is back. One of our roads was basically a giant rumble strip for half a mile.

They do the same here too. Our local roads are like patchwork quilts. I am in the country so funding is not high. Your teeth shake loose on a drive into town :D

Sounds like my neighborhood. People are swerving all over the road. They look drunk. Nope, just dodging the giant holes in the road.

Ugh... I hate falling so far behind on reading various threads, but so glad I finally got to catch up, and GLAD our winter was not like those pics you've shared with us! Even so, I still need to move farther south... ;)

I know gross but I'm easily amused. Snow melted and this was left out in the field so had to take a photo of the Easter bunny :)
I have such talented ponies LOL

Wooly Mammoths shed and shed and shed, oh the tired arms

Our neighbourhood moose and her new calf trotting down the road but by the time I got my camera they were down by the neighbours yard and it was snowing snowing snowing so no good photos

After surviving 2weeks of Spring break and getting kids back to school, I found out the piggies that were supposed to be born early Feb still have not been born! So without hyperbole I spent 9days with house phone and cell phone morning til night searching for pigs! Too late to switch 4-H projects so without a pig born at the right time my son would not have been able to take part in 4-H this year.

Sadly they came from a very large commercial farm so very disagreeable conditions and they have cuts scratches all over them. The dirty face is because my son fed them their grain and also gave them some nice fresh warm goat milk over the grain so it became mushy and they happily got it all over their faces :)
They're in my dark barn with heat lamp for now since they're small and their yard is still completely snow covered so not easy to take photos

4-H is a great thing Roy its not just farm animals. Last year my son hatched, raised and showed Quail and earned Grand Reserve Champion which was great for his 1st project and first time showing. This year he is attempting a swine project which is new and a much bigger project but he's excited :) By the time he goes to fair he will know to the cent how much it has cost to raise his pig and will have to care for it extremely well so that he will be able to show it at Fair this summer. The motto is learn to do by doing so his Mom and Dad will not being doing any chores etc for him it's up to raise his piggy if he wants to see the earnings and enjoy the fun things at Fair :) He bought his pig with his earnings from last years Quail. I am leader for the Cloverbuds with my 2 youngest children which is 6-9yr olds and we don't do animal projects just crafts and we learn about all the animal and non animal projects available to do when they get older.

So for the next few months I will have piggy pictures :)
