@@JustaFewAcresFarm I thought barberry as well although I don't recall you saying it is deciduous. Which it is. This is the purple-leaved cultivar. The species itself is green, and that's what you are seeing down inside of the bush, it's natural coloration.

Your closing comments are spot on. It's what each of us experience throughout our lives. Raising the family, paying the mortgage, work, work and more work until we realize that the kids are grown and the mortgage is paid. Then it's just your mate and you. Time to get back to the things, as you said, fulfill us. Contentment is the key to a happy retirement I believe.

Excellent video Pete :) , Hilary :) tide up your homestead and always pretty what both do to also love it too ! Also nice got new calfs in cows to and so cute to that my favorite part in doing farming back years ago! Why did is my dad also uncle say how many calfs getting soon also be twins or tripleets and males also females! It was questionable game like playing with me because 1 to 2 on some years on odd years then some years 3 calfs come on even years new on farm ! Was wild for sure 👍!

I let out a gasp when I saw the compost spilling at 12:31! Then I remembered you make tons of compost and then I was just a little jealous of your riches. With no livestock I have to buy compost. Grrr. The bovines look happy and contented. The yard and garden look cleaner and will be more content. Now it's time for you and Hillary to take your turn at the contentment you provide for the other parts of your life. Knowing what makes you happy is terrific. Especially when you find it right outside your own back door.
