The Peepers are back!


Way over to the North of my farm across the pasture, is a pond tucked into the woods. It's really swampy in there. And full of cattails. But really cool in the summer, with nice big rocks to sit on. The dogs love it there too. You can see Stella over to the right going in for a swim.

So I was reading in the Almanac that the Peepers will be out in full force the first few weeks in Feb. And they sure are! I love that sound. It's really loud too, but sounds so cool.

Some new goats?


I went out to the milk room for something later this morning and found this. I don't mind that they clean up the left over grain, as long as they don't poop on the stanchion. That is SO nasty! But these girls were doing a good job. Since I haven't been feeding the 4 hens and 1 roo any grain, they've been sneaking in here to get some. That's ok though. I'll just need to check inside this feeder to make sure they don't leave anything behind. The goats will not like that at all.

Happy weekend!


I wish I knew how to link up with another blog, but I'll just do it this way for now. Amanda Soule does this on Fridays, called This Moment. Here is my wish for you all. A peaceful wonderful weekend.
