It's been a tough year already.  As if everything else going on in the world isn't enough, we have had terrible heat and drought in our neck of the woods.

Due to the lack of rain, there is a lack of feed, so we decided to wean the calves a little early this year.

We start early in the morning to beat some of the heat.

Some water in the irrigated meadow.  This was a treat for the cows and the horses.

Despite the weather, it's still another day in paradise.

Most of the meadows still have water enough to irrigate. We aren't going to get as much hay as usual put up though.
