When all else fails!

      When all else fails, hunt for cedars in the grass. This serves two purposes. Obviously, clearing grassland of invasive trees is one purpose. The other advantage is that it gives Kaia an opportunity to run in the fields. Most days he flushes a rooter pheasant while getting her exercise. When I tire out, which can be rather quickly, I go to work in the shop. It's a nice escape from the persistent wind and it's comfortably cool. There's a small repair job on a tractor that occupies me in the shop.

     These hot windy days are exacerbating the drought. Some rain is in the forecast in the next couple of days. Hopefully it will come and exceed the minor amount predicted.

This is the largest cedar found today. Most of them are less than a foot tall.
