Oh so Close!

It was so close we thought we could touch it...Spring that is. After a week in the 40's-60's I thought that winter had made a quick exit. Mother Nature once again played a cruel joke....6 inches of snow yesterday.

Chore time at the farm was a real adventure today...with the  sun shining it has melted some snow leaving it slick with a layer of mud underneath. It proved to be a bit much for the Jeep today as we spun and spun trying to catch some traction anywhere we could find it.

Not bad enough that we were stuck I had to contend with an audience too. Surrounding the Jeep were 4 big horses looking ready to offer some sort of advice on how to remedy the situation. I could just imagine what they were thinking...stupid car...she should have known...a horse would never been in that situation. I found myself becoming more and more frustrated as mud and snow were flying everywhere...jumping out, I yell at them telling all of them I was going to find a rope and they could pull me out...much to my surprise all 4 turned around and walked away probably on their way to find someone else to make fun of!
