September Scenes

One of the hardest parts of blogging is coming up with titles for the posts!

Overall, it was a beautiful week - We did have our first frost on Thursday morning though - it was a light one, not much damage, just a pumpkin vine or two.

Periwinkle is getting to be a big girl.  She needed a hoof trim and is just too big to hold now so she had her first turn on the milking stand - Spot was hoping for a snack I guess!

The view from the milking stand hasn't changed too much but the trees are a little lighter and although it's hard to see, there is a sheen of bright green over the brown field - the wheat is up.

Here is a closer look - this is a sight that makes Kevin very happy!

Last week I had a photo of a pumpkin on a vine growing in the hayshed.  It is really amazing to see how much it has grown - really, in just seven days!  The spaces on that fence panel are 6x8 inches.

Another odd looking pumpkin - this one is growing out of the compost bin.  Not sure it will be edible, but it's interesting.

The pigs are getting all kinds of treats theses day.  Here they are enjoying some acorns brought out  by a co-worker who has an abundance of them in her yard.  Yum!

So that's your update from the farm.  I'll be back next week - until then, enjoy the fine weather and be well friends!
