Look Out Its A Moose!
We were out for a family outing today and Anna shot this moose.
Sunday Drive
I remember Sunday drives. Some of the time we would still be in our church clothes, although us girls could take our hats and gloves off. If Dad had a long drive planned, we would go home first and change. In the early years that was an easy do because we were only blocks from … Continue reading
That’s My Girl
After I got home from our horseback riding (see Oh Mercy) I went back out to the clearing to pick some wild black berries, the indigenous kind. Amber, my new Rat Terrier pup, and I had a great training walk. We saw Phil, who was out back cutting next winter’s warmth, ate some berries, then … Continue reading
Oh Mercy
This is Mercedes, our friend and famous turkey incubating lady, Cindi, loaned her to Anna until she can find a buyer for her. People are too nice to our girls. Now that the girls have an extra horse they have been bugging me to go ride with them. I haven’t ridden in a long time. … Continue reading
We all came to the farm in this box! We love our ducks, we let them wander around the barns and nursery area in the day time and they are locked into the barn at night. It is amazing how Fluffy, our big sumpin watch dog, doesn’t even give them much of a second look. … Continue reading
Maybe I Should Have Just Watched The Show
Sorry dear reader if I subjected you to the result of my trying to multi task. I was probably too tired to even mono task. But I have cleaned up my terrible writing (worse than usual) and set the post Electric Day right. Today’s goal is to focus on what I am doing and get … Continue reading
I’m Done
I have just spent over 45 minutes editing and re-editing the following post. I have been trying desperately to get the spaces between the paragraphs. I can’t. I have tried a zillion different ways. I can’t. I’m done. Please be patient with me dear reader. Thank you, cause I know you will be kind.
Electric Day
7:00 Order some chickens for next year’s laying and breeding program and 25 broilers. Too late to get the ones I really wanted, once again procrastination does not pay off. 9:00 The electric day really begins now with electromyography, not unlike tripping over the electric fence while wearing the dog’s training collar while the dog … Continue reading
Who’s Poop Is This?
I have a scat identification book, I just haven’t gone up to find it. This belongs to the animal that absconded with our beloved (and not) little blue bantam rooster. Last year an animal came to our farm that we had never heard before. It has a creepy screamy rattly yowl (sounds like a piece … Continue reading
Great Day On The Farm
Mike and Michelle came out to the farm today and we just hung out, picked a few cherries and strawberries, got things watered and filled flats to seed tomorrow. The girls all went for a horse back ride. Dirt had a great day. He replaced his tire on his motorsickle, now he can take me … Continue reading
