Smells good here right now!

Smells good here right now!  Scott Norman is mowing the alfalfa on our field south of the house.  This is the first of (hopefully) three cuttings in this growing season.  This one didn't need any irrigation; we had plenty of rain to let it grow.

Scott is one of the extensive Norman clan in the Paradise area.  We lease 13.5 acres to him for to run alfalfa on.  His uncle, Mike, built our house here 22 years ago.  He and a number of his relatives live within a half-mile radius of us.  We're surrounded!  :)
