Jonquils in January

Yesterday I noticed the Jonquils blooming and it was 70 degrees, today a tornado passed through the north end of the county. We had flooding rain and wind. Tree frogs have been calling the rain up for over a week, you can count on tree frogs to bring on the rain. Sounds crazy, but it's true. No damage here except mud and leaking barns, probably some ruined hay. Sheep and goats stood in the barns all day, waiting for hay to be put in the feeders, no one went out to graze today. The dogs were under foot, they can feel or maybe hear the storm coming. Kay is terrified of them, couldn't eat until the storm was gone. The weather is the hardest thing for a farmer to deal with. Can't do anything about it. When you see old farmers that can't stand straight, bent over from all the years of going against the wind, you know they made it by bending but never breaking.
