Denny- It's good to hear from you. Your life sounded hectic. I hope your head is feeling better. To answer your questions- The "happy mother's day" was radishes that we pulled out because we had to thin them, so the ones left have enough room. Yes, Grant is trimming the sheep hoof. They are hair sheep, so they shed their wool without having to be sheared.
Another week of rainy weather in Oregon. This week involved a lot of weeding and planing. We weeded the lettuce crop and started on the peas and carrots of the home garden. We also planted ~60 tomatoes, 200 tomatillos, 200 basils, 40 eggplants, 700 squash, and a field of corn called Black Aztec. We also had a some construction experience by finishing the bracing on the yurt deck and building a trellis for the peas. Since I smashed a finger with a hammer, and typing is not pleasant, that's all for now.
