[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2839564, member: 91783"] Two years ago some areas here didn't get green as it was too dry for the grass to sprout. Last year some areas got enough rain to get green and stayed green for quite awhile, but some areas dried out pretty fast. This year where I am we are getting a lot of moisture and the grass is bright green and taller than normal. So many years we get green grass and by mid to late June it is drying out and curing. The animals seem to be liking the softer green grass and putting on some weight, shedding their winter coats and getting new shinny summer coats. So many years they get pretty rough looking when they lose some of the long dry hair and fur in patches, most of them are pretty smooth looking this year already. We didn't have a lot of blooms on the choke cherry trees this spring so there aren't a lot of berries on them and the currents as well as the buffalo berries aren't loaded with fruit either. The old timers used to tell me that meant we would have a milder winter, time will tell. We had a bumper crop of asparagus this spring, but the garden is off to a slow start, the birds found and ate a lot of the seeds so some replanting took place. I have another road trip today as I will go up and get my grandson then take him to his dads, go to Casper then back down to Cheyenne I will see a lot of animals along the way. Tomorrow, I plan on getting out to look at some of the den sites, I haven't been to yet, and see if they had any little ones around them this year. There is a rattle snake den in one of the areas, but I don't plan to visit it, those dens have a smell all their own. Rattle snakes have their place it's just not where I'm at! I was asked one time why do you park then look at the ground when you open your door before you step out, there are a ton of reasons for it, rattle snakes, cactus, cow pies mud water puddles, I'm not a fan of those kinds of surprises.
