From Town to Country: A Wife's Tale

• Wednesday, March 26, 2008 - This and That

Posted in Day to Day

Well, it looks like Lucky is doing fine in the barn.  She walks kind of funny but is right in there with Clara eating with the goats.  They have their own chicken feed but apparently goat chow is better.

Our snow is disappearing and Sunny and 2 of our younger goats noticed the "greener" pasture on the other side of the fence as we found them grazing OUTSIDE of the pasture fence.  All 3 came running as soon as they saw me.. crawling right under the fence without hestitation.  I guess Rich has work to do on that darn fence!  He's not too happy.   

Speaking of the snow, I thought I'd share this picture I took a few days ago when we got 6+ inches of heavy wet snow.

The sun was just starting to come up.  I think it is so beautiful when it's snowing heavy like this and everything is undisturbed.

Hoare frost is also very pretty which is what is in this picture:

Well, I need to get to bed.  I have a 4 hour meeting tomorrow morning.

About Me

We've been working on the family farm for 3 years trying to get it back to a working farm. The farm was neglected for 15+ years before we took it on. The summer of 2008 is our family's first experience living in the country, so began our journey from town to country...
