MORE HAY-GOODBYE CHRIS=OPEN HOUSE AT THE FIREHOUSE-SAM

GREETINGS

The whole house and yard is encased with the smell of skunk.  Its as though he was in the house!

The weather is still nice and cool but more humidity and some needed rain will be here in a day or two.

Chris left yesterday.  We got so much accomplished while he was here.  He will be back in October.

MORE HAY

Cindy met us in Greenfield and we put 18 bales of hay in her Mini Van!!!!!!  And loaded 4 bales in my car.  The total in the barn is now 42 toward my goal of 100.I won’t start using the 100 till mid march to insure that when I run out the new hay will be ready.

 

 Thanks so much Cindy.  Chris and Charlie got it into the barn in no time.

SAM AND MOM

Sam the man has been here a year.  He was two yesterday.  He has changed so much and come into his own.

 I am so happy that i got he and Owen  Although Owen didn’t have a long time here he to came into his own before he passed away.

Yesterday was another anniversary.  It was one year since my Mom passed.  Time has flown by.  I miss she and my Dad so much. If you still have parents  be sure to ask them things about your family and their lives.  I have so many questions unanswered.  When Cindy got home last night she has an old clock which belonged to my Dad’s family.  It’s never touched or wound up yet yesterday it was ticking, how interesting.

THE FIREHOUSE OPEN HOUSE

My son so enjoys being a volunteer fireman.  It’s a rewarding job   Yesterday was there annual open house.

Good friends and family Lil meets Sparky her new hero

 Food was served, all the equipment was out and there was a smoke house that you could go into.  What a fun and educational day for adults and children alike.

Many thanks for reading my blog today and I hope you had a lovely day.  Carole

GETTING BACK TO NORMAL-BARN CLEANING AND MORE HAY-NIGHT TIME VISITOR-NEW ARRIVAL

HELLO

Slowly my strength is coming back and today I almost feel like my old self.  So much to do getting reading for the cold and snow.  Freezing rain, then snow are expected for tomorrow.

BARN CLEANING AND MORE HAY

Chris is here to help me get some tasks done.  He and Charlie cleaned the barn totally yesterday and it looks great.  I appreciate the help so much.  Today Chris and I cleaned up the yard and  got the barn ready for a delivery of hay.  The bales were heavy but all are safely in the barn.

.  The heated water tank is set up inside.  I still need to put plastic covering on the chicken ‘s window and get the lamp installed but that’s another day.

Night time visitor

This possum has been visiting my son’s house every night.  He rests in the chestnut tree and we are wondering if he likes the vantage point or is finding nuts.

MEET SAMANTHA or SAMMY PUPPY AS LIL CALLS HER
