Those Darn Tumbleweeds..............

Remember the post back in mid-December where I highlighted Joe and the boys
burning tumbleweeds along the driveways?

Well, they're back.

We had really, really strong winds from the west yesterday.  When the winds blow,
the tumbleweeds fly......literally.
There were so many piled up against our fencing that they had to be mowed down.

It looks messy, and we run the very real risk of having damage to the wires.





These boys are CHAMPS!  All four of them!
Joe presented the problem this morning, and Isaac and Joshua rose to the occasion to help.
Willie kept them all company.









Looking very good!
They had already worked on the other sides of the corral fencing when I took these!





That's good for now.........until the next big wind comes around!

New Year Snow - 2019

We started the New Year off in a very unusual way here in southern Arizona!

SNOW!
But yes, we did get more snow on New Year's Eve and into the morning hours 
of the New Year!  It was beautiful and peaceful.

With the low-level clouds covering the mountains it looked as if we were back in Nebraska!






Our little family of "four snow people"!!


We are all looking expectantly to what 2019 will bring!
Especially a grandson............!!
