Today's mowing pics!
I got myself some gaiters to see if they keep the dust and debris out of my nose and eyes better than my cotton masks. So far, so good!

The weekly mows have begun. I've tried to get pics from all over the property this week. You'll notice that we've killed the grass around the Marquette. We'll be planting a trial patch of a micro-clover mix to hopefully minimize mowing time. Stay tuned to see how that goes!

Ellie Mae is fresh from her off-season spa service. And Michelle got some new goggles to keep the bugs, dust, and grass clippings out of her eyes. It must be time for the first cut of the season!

We harvested the Marquette yesterday. Some of the nets got moved over to the Cabernet Franc. Before I could cut the grass, we had to button up the nets! (I tried making a little video for you, but "buttoning up" apparently takes 2 hands.)
Then . . . I had a little mishap because of the wet grass and a hill. We're going to have to put the chains back on the tires. Chris helped tow me away from the fence.
Moments later, I discovered Chris's wallet. It had fallen out of his pocket while he was on the tractor.
What an adventurous mowing day!
