Random shots from past week.

I don't know - you'll have to ask K3 and K7 what this pic is about. I understand the sign for "talking on the phone", but...

Easter Sunday. Mom and I spoke in Church, and Danny's parents came for a visit this weekend. So...

...because of their visit, we celebrated Wiley's first birthday some weeks early. K3 made miniature chocolate cupcakes with special frosting and a mint cookie on top. The good news is that we get to have more cake when we celebrate his B-day again at end of month!

Mom killed her battery, so we had to get the jumper cables out. Jimmy the cat wanted to help.

K8 wielding a machete to cut up tree limbs.

After building a giant pile of brush, K8 started a beautiful fire with a few matches and a handful of leaves and sticks.

We moved hay and cows to different paddocks.

Some of the dogs patrolling the perimeter fence. Dandy had to have surgery on her leg to repair a rip in her skin, so she was restricted to the upper back deck for several days while healing. As of today, she is ready to go back on patrol.

We now have both sides of the stream fenced, so the cattle have a lot more  grass to eat and room to move around in.

K8 is standing in the corral at sunset. This was a particularly long work day. He missed play practice.

Never ending visits to the Feed Store.

Great camouflage on this bantam rooster formerly a member of the "wild flock" out in the corral, but he has joined the "tame flock" and now lives in the dairy shed coop.

K7 bought a GroPro action camera and records many different activities. We had just returned from shooting, and he is still wearing his ear muffs and cartridge belt.

Happy to be here!

  3. Life on the Wanch looks like work but also more quiet than the city. Other than the allergies, it's great to be there!
