Welcome Spring !

In spite of the rainy, snowy spring weather, tulips put on an absolutely beautiful display for us several weeks ago in the front flower bed.  We did have several stretches of sunshine and 60 – 70 degree weather and really got spoiled.  As we say around here, if you don’t like the weather, just wait 5 minutes and it’ll change!

Tulips popped up at the bases of the ancient cottonwoods as well.  Pale, paper-thin blue Robin egg shells are all over the grounds.  Down on the lower farm, the pond peepers (baby frogs) sing.  The irrigation canals are full and ready to nourish the fields behind us. Robert is very busy getting the grounds ready for the upcoming Memorial Day weekend.

Look at that lush green lawn!

Pansies are up and ready for some sunshine!

That’s a quick spring update from The Rankin.  Call and let us know when you are coming!  Travel safely!
