Stew...looks great! I could have that for breakfast. 
Can see the carrots, potatoes. Meat? Could be beef, pork, lamb.. looks beef and yummy.
It's lovely here this AM. Been having coffee and checking in to see what others are doing. Apparently, sleeping in
Well it IS a holiday! Started at 70 here, up to 88 later, feel like of 95, scattered shower/T-storm at 30% late day. I could be happy with normal aver of 82 but, will take what I get -- no choice, right? Dew is so heavy it looks like it rained. Water slings off boots as you walk thru the grass. The grass is loving it and growing faster than anyone can eat it. Yes, mowing is in the weekly chores.
Few days of farm work this week as I am off outside work
Probably enough on that "list" to cover a month. Will choose ones that benefit me the most to do first. Then, if any time left, will start on others. Also I see I am off next 2 Saturdays (unusual!) and one of those has a goat auction . I believe I am going to take 4 bucklings from this past Spring kidding. They aren't quite where I'd like for best $$ but, at this time I don't want to carry into winter, allocate space, worry about escape to does, etc. So whatever I get, I get! There is enough pasture to carry them for months but, if we get an early snow or hard freeze, more hay. With this year's weather challenges I am not wanting to chance it. Carrying 5 Spring does and need to feed them instead. 
I am giddy about several days off...in a row! Now to use them well. With that thought, I will wish everyone a GREAT Labor Day!! I am getting out there shortly to decide where to start -- actually, already know! Just need to pull things together & do it.
