Busy Summer

New goat

Wow it is unbelievable to me that it has been a month since I posted. Life happens fast in the spring. I finally got the garden planted and the garlic harvested. The beans are blooming and so are the potatoes and the tomatoes and peas. It has been so hot lately that I was afraid [...]

We got a new piece of farm equipment this weekend. It is a used EZ-Go cart with a bunch of attachments. This thing even has a cover and a heater! As you can see I have yet to use this. They boys have loved driving it around though. The Driver’s License is not to far [...]

Snow-rain?

| February 7, 2011

Well, a few flurries were predicted for tonight after 6pm. No one thought much about it then because it was close to 50 degrees yesterday.
