Flashback: Pool at the farm

The kids all learned to swim, but it was alot of work.

We filled it in many years ago.

Great to have a mother-daughter helping

Lots of things happen.

Looks like a good hay crop this year

Lots of red clover and trefoil.

Now to get it off without rain.

There are always things to fix on a farm

Great to have handy friends.

Thanks Chris.

Another trip to Countryside Harness

I just had to give it a try.

Above is the bridle.

Below, the complete harness with lines.

Flashback: 32 years living at CVF

As you can see from this photo, nothing in life stays the same.

One must adapt to what comes along.

The trick is to identify the opportunities when they appear.
