Well, I guess when the days change from near freezing to 80 degrees...Spring is trying to eeak it's way into the atmosphere. Last weekend brought a sandstorm that blocked out the daylight and the entire sky was red with sand! Here's a shot from just south of our house as I drove home...you could barely see the farm!

Spring also brings better fishing, so Dyke and his brother and a couple of others decided to head to Lake Arrowhead to try their "homemade" catfish bait. Zack "skipped" out of school - his grades are wonderful and it was a perfect Father-Son trip. Here's Zack with one of the larger catfish that they caught (the head).

On Thursday, Zack had his first track meet in Vernon! He won the discus with a throw of 136 ft. and got 2nd in the shot put with a heave of 40'9"

Jake came home Thursday night so that he could work to make some Spring Break money. We decided to ship the bull (Toro) and 2 big steers to Hollis, OK. Their sale is Saturday morning. So, I called the cows up and we sorted those to be sold.
Glad to get them shipped.
Ready for a young angus bull.
