    Lee, just let SWMBO read through your blog, her comments were Oooohhhh! Aaaahhhhh! Sweet! and he even gets snow!! Now busy packing her travel bag and should be with you soon, just do not let her near mechanical things, and thanks for accomodating her - me I'm just off to the pub in celebration....
    That is what she would like as her ideal home, trouble is where do you park the Elephant, oh yes we would have to have an Elephant, oh and a pig or two, and a cow, and a nice warm box for the Racoons, and winter coats for all the animals and rubber boots for when it rains.... When she starts I have a vision of a herd of cows all lined up in pink sweaters....

          Move the babies to the bigger brooder in the Garage this week and it’s going to be cold again down to the mid 20s but the Brooder is very warm I’m not worried. Click image for larger version

                Jim Thanks I cant move as fast take me longer to get things done anymore around the place but I just keep chipping away at what projects I have going on and sooner or later it’s done,

                Here’s some pics of me taking hay a couple years ago. I used the hay for feeding the deer that come around in the winter and my hen boxes. I put the hay up lose I make hay stack with my pitchfork and load it on my old barge wagon.

                    Mine tells me she already has one of those. I wouldn't dare tell her so have I.

                      Thanks John. When you lift the lid the warm air hits you like a warm summer day it is nice and cozy for them.

                              Today I added 2 more livestock to the Hobby Farm. Belinda and I went and bought these Lambs today. The first pic is where I bought them the Farm in the background the rest are at the Hobby Farm. I’ve raised Goats in the past for years but never sheep but have a very good knowledge of how to raise them enjoy the pics. Click image for larger version

                                Lambs are so very cute. Goats are wonderful creatures. Very friendly and inquisitive.
