The VERMIN-ATOR - ME

Don't know if you remember, but Kathy at Spot on Cedar Pond and I have been having this contest in 2010. She and her husband, Jim, have huge moles that run amok under the surface of their lawn and garden areas.  Tony and I are overrun with gophers digging holes and leaving big mounds in our lawn and pastures, too.  With either one, a person could trip and break and ankle or something if you step on or in one of these huge mounds.  So we decided to have a contest!  The COUNTS are down on my sidebar, and Kathy also has one on her sidebar.
Well, guess who won?  ME, that's who!  And Kathy decided that I should have a prize -
Look what she sent...

I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS !!!
who even know that there was a game like this???

AND LOOK HOW IT WAS ADDRESSED!   That Kathy - is she somethin' or IS SHE SOMETHIN' ???

I think I can handle this game ok.  Ages 4 and up...

See, it has these cute (?) little varmints - moles or gophers - take your pick.  They pop up with little hard hats on - different colors - and when your color pops up it lights their hard hats, and you have to BOP them on the head!  I just wish it was this easy to take care of our real gopher program!!!  Kathy, this game is so cute! Isn't blogging fun!  I've met some of the nicest, sweetest and FUNNEST people EVER!

Stay tuned to 2011's varmint contest!!!

In other news....
We got a light dusting of snow last week.  It was nice, and didn't last long, so I hope that's all for the year...

It snowed more at the farm than at our own house!  Weird...  I'm ready for spring!  My daffodils are trying to come up...

Nothing like the nice snow we got last year on February 12.

Have to get a pic of Princess shivering in the snow. 

This one was kinda cool.  I sent it over to PIKNIK to edit and made it kinda grainy. 

Well, my friends. Tomorrow is Sunday, and I'm looking forward to meeting with all the saints for worship.  I hope you all are doing the same.  Have a wonderful Sunday and time with your family and loved ones.  I'll ketch ya on the flip-side.

Yours truly,
THE VERMIN-ATOR
