Where are the April showers?????

It's still pretty dry here and our total for the month is roughly 2.5 inches :(
TheManWhoHoldsMyHeart has planted all the vegatables in the garden and has already began to use his new watering idea for the tomato plants. It's a form of drip irrigation! I'll have to get a picture and show you, it's pretty clever, he's been a soil and water conservationist for almost 33 years so he does have a few tricks up his sleeve. While he's not as extreme as a tree hugger, he is a land lubber, haha!! We both believe in protecting our natural resources for future generations. We talk windbreaks, no-till, and terrace farming just to name a few, of the soil conservation practices, that have become common vocabulary, for us and our children, as they grew up. I'm so darn proud of him for all the years he has devoted to conserving the plains, and providing for his family, while ensuring a future on the land for generations to come!! I <3 The ManWhoHoldsMyHeart!
These are his girls, all heifers, that make The Wandering Star Ranch
