Winter Sheeps!

Gin is home!

Start Your Engines is a thoroughbred I got off the racetrack a lifetime ago in California. Today I brought him home to chill in the backyard for a bit...not sure if this is a retirement for us or just a hiatus. But, it is good to look out the kitchen window and see him. He has been with me for a long time, and at 18 he still has a lot left in him. I hope I do too!

New Year

Lots of friends and family around for the holidays...which meant some help with the chores!


Emmy! the original tractor grrrl....


Dad helped muck out the sheep and goat shed.

Aunt Marti and I prepared an awesome turkey dinner...
and she was game for doing all the feedings and chores!
