Sunny but still cold

So here is a question.  Do farmers care about tractor size the way boat owners do?  I have fretted that my Kubota 25 horse power was not going to get the job done so I traded up to a 35 horse power New Holland with a good friend.  After dodging paintballs from 10 to noon I found a substitute Zombie paintball target for the spring break kids and headed to Walkersville to pick up the bigger tractor.  By days end Josh was turning soil and prepping for the tiller that we will be renting on Monday.

Seeds should be arriving tomorrow or Monday.  The hope is to get some planting done in time for our  Spring Festival next weekend.  One thing that separates my farm from almost any other on the planet. I have 350 happy, playful children around all summer.  Today the kids were here during spring break and in two months they will be here when school lets out.  I must have the most perfect setup in the world and the campers will be participating and learning about farming without realizing they are being taught
.  This is going to be fun.
