For those of you not from Iowa and didn't grow up on a farm, you probably wonder what the heck you do every night. There really isn't anywhere to go or much exciting to do. I thought I would review a typical evening for us with nothing to do.....
We get home from work about 5:00 to 5:30. The first thing we do is change clothes and run out to see the puppies.
 |
2 1/2 weeks old now |
We play with the puppies, get Molly fed and watered and give her some attention, clean everyone up and then we are off again... We let everyone else out for some exercise..
 |
ahh! That is the spot! |
Harley decides his rear end itches so he uses the bottom strand of fence to itch where it itches...
 |
Do I see a cat? |
Rasmus gets to get out and run around the farm checking out all the cats, horses, etc.
 |
Yep! I see a cat! |
Oscar gets to wander under our watchful eye. He especially likes to see the cats but they don't care much to see him.... Then as we are taking hay out to the horses, we discover Mike's horse Rev is being stupid...
 |
What's wrong with this picture... |
 |
I'm free!! |
So, Mike coaxes Rev out of the hay feeder luckily without a scratch. Then aghh! Cow in the barn!!
 |
What the heck?? |
Rosie gets in the barn... Looking to see what's going on... So Mike gets some corn and coaxes her back to where she is supposed to be.. Then Oscar and Rasmus decide they would like to introduce themselves to Jimmy Dean... So Jimmy comes up to the fence to visit..
And Oscar decides I'm outta here! That's just a little too close!
 |
ahh! I'm out of here! |
Then we get everyone put away for the evening and head for the house. There Oscar gets to practice his stack for a dog show some day! Pretty boy!
 |
Don't hate me because I'm beautiful! |
And, by that time, it's pretty much bedtime. Yep 8:30 p.m. is it at the Johnson Ranch and we are all pooped!
Of course we get up at 3:45 a.m. to be to work by 6:00 a.m. so 8:30 doesn't seem all that early... That's just one evening of nothing to do here in Iowa... :-)
