Next week will be all rain, but after today I am really looking forward to spring. \u00a0Once again, I spent the afternoon with my 4 chickens <a href=\"https:\/\/cathmiller.com\/blog\/2013\/07\/30\/cultivating-chooks\/\">turning over another vege bed<\/a> ready for the beetroot, parsnip and other seed planting. \u00a0Just before 6pm as I was walking back after feeding the chickens, horses, goats and guinea fowl, the clear sky was showing a hint of pink on the horizon, so I pulled out the phone camera. \u00a0The clear sky also meant a cold night with the temperature plummeting when the sun went down. \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cathmiller.com\/blog\/?s=shorty\">Sort-0f-farm-dog Shorty<\/a> is on the path, but it is a bit dark to see. \u00a0Some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/474927719248895\/permalink\/506210839453916\/\" target=\"_blank\">co-contributors in the Bedlam Farm Ministry of Encouragement<\/a> in the US commented that the liked to hear about the reversed seasons &#8220;I love that your seasons are reversed of ours, here, makes me feel like there is always hope for tomorrow!&#8221; and\u00a0 &#8220;just knowing our summer warmth is headed your way makes it\u00a0easier to say farewell to the season.
