I’ve just completed my first full week of work on the farm.\u00a0 This is the time of the year when there is a lot of…\u00a0 hurry up and wait.\u00a0 As I mentioned before, our pruning is a little behind schedule, but so is spring.\u00a0 In fact, it was 19 at my house earlier this week.\u00a0 So we aren’t too stressed about the pruning progress.\u00a0 It looks like all will be done in time.<\/p>\n
As I was out in the field this week catching up on the pruning progress, I noticed something white down at the big pond.\u00a0 Many of you hunters out there know the sensation…\u00a0 there is something down there that isn’t always there: it must be an animal.\u00a0 White at the top, white at the bottom, brown in between and standing at the edge of the pond.\u00a0 Sure enough it was a big eagle.\u00a0 I continued on my path which came close to the pond and the eagle rose up into a locust tree as if to show off.\u00a0 He was immense, and unafraid.\u00a0 Hopefully\u00a0he found one of those muskrats that have been digging in the bank.\u00a0This is exactly the kind of thing you don’t get to see while working in an office.<\/p>\n
There are a lot of things I know I’m going to love about this new adventure.\u00a0 And the best part is that I don’t even know what all those things will be.\u00a0 Because every day is different.<\/p>\n
