Summer @ The Kessi Ranch 2022...

 The first week of July

and we are finally getting summer weather

here in Western Oregon

Foxgloves growing by the barn...

We are making round hay bales...

Roses and Peonies blooming by the front door...

There are baby tree swallows living in the

2 story bird house the Cowboy built for me.

The chickens scratching through the iris bed.

They eat all of the slugs and bugs...

great for the flowers!

The second hay field is mowed...

I am raking....the Cowboy is baling.

Round Bale

We moved the main cattle herd to new pasture

last evening...

They are in grass up to their eyeballs...

Lots of munching goin on !

First hay field all baled up...

Queen Anne's Lace growing along the fence...

Thread Shed...

In between hay fields,

I have been stitching in here...

I finished up the machine quilting on

this warm up piece I started a few weeks ago...

I had to see if I remembered how to

stitch a feather...

It took 5 bobbins and 5 hours of quilting...

It is a 1 yard piece of hand dyed fabric:

Vicki suggested I make a tote bag...

I think there is enough for two !

We are in the 3rd hay field:

I spent the day mowing...

if you look close you can see I am

down to the middle section of the field...

I am not alone:

A fledgling sparrow is keeping me company

on the fence post...

Bye For Now...

Happy Summer 2022 !
