New episode in "War of the Roses"

Some of you know about Tom's ongoing "War of the Roses" - his obsession with ridding our land of the wild rose bushes that have taken over parts of the pasture. Well, the roses took victory in a battle earlier this week.......



While bush hogging down a dead rosebush, one of the branches jumped up, knocked his hat off and managed to leave a long gash across his nose. Thanks go out especially to his brave Ray's Weather cap, which sacrified its life to protect the rest of his head!


Meanwhile, this is how I spent my Wednesday afternoon.......
