The advent of spring brings the return to irrigating duties around here. I have some ground below the ditch that gets flood irrigated all summer, and that requires tending ditches and all that with a hoe or shovel.
I like to go down to the pasture in the mornings before it gets too hot, but right now, it's still pretty cool wading around in wet ground. I am almost always accompanied by the dogs, Beau and Tinker. And recently, Spirit has decided she wants to go along with us.
I haven't been able to get any pictures but will try to do so as this is an interesting addition to the Tale of Spirit.
She has gone down at the same time I walk down, and she has wandered down at her leisure, but either way she gets next to me along a ditch. The other day I was walking toward the barn through the irrigated ground, and she was just prancing along as if she were part of the group.
I'll try to get some pix in the next couple of days.
Today is Column Writing Day around here though, so gotta get busy.
