At the Farm...

June 7 2014 - We were invited to take a tour of family farm of some of our friends...

Being greeted by our tour guide who gingerly asked us to pay for admission ;)

Buster certainly made some new friends

The logs are pushed out over these rollers after being cut


Old blades

Exchanging stories
The tour continues!





Carefully...removing the lid to the hive and removing a frame.

Checking out the bee hives









Chickens inside of the "Chicken Tractor"
Wait...a "chicken tractor?"  Let Joel Salatin explain.
Lose those eyelashes!


A mother hen and her chicks


Heading back to the house…where did our tour guide go?

What follows are random shots from around the farm:










Can you tell that [our] Ben is gross-motor movement dominant?




Is there any better way to end?

Post Office and Lydia’s POV (Video)

 September 7, 2013-This morning started with a short bike ride to the tiny post office less than a mile away to ship off some Stately Steps DVDs.

     This tiny office is only open a few hours a day and the mail carrier seems to know everyone in town by name.

   Benjamin bought a GoPro camera that allows him to get footage underwater (videos coming soon.)  He tried strapping the camera to Lydia to see things from her point-of-view.

  The camera wasn’t strapped well enough to get a stable shot, but it was still hilarious to see Lydia with a camera!  She certainly wasn’t a fan.
