Hello Friends!

Not much going on today on the farm. I may need a new heating system for the house but more on that later.

Cuteness overload. We have a lot of rabbits eating on our front lawn and I hear a lot of coyotes at night barking, so I really hope they are all huddled safely in the woods.

Have a nice weekend! I have a busy one coming up starting with a HVAC person coming out at 8 am! Wish me luck!!

God Bless the Queen and long live the King!

Hello Friends

We are finally getting some much needed rain here in the northeast! My lawns looked the worst they have in years. But the good news is that the swans and their babies are growing fast. I did not know this but the babies will take a full year to turn white!

I see them everyday driving up my driveway. It’s a nice greeting to have on mostly stressful work related days.

We also have a duck family that lives in the same area as the swans! The duck family is much larger than the swan family so it’s nice to see them together.

Have you started decorating for fall? I have and love it!! I did get some push back but Autumn is my favorite season and the fall colors are the best!

Hello friends! Several weeks ago I posted about the swans, how the Mom swan never left her nest. A few weeks went by and the swans were gone. I honestly thought they had no babies and they left the river that they lived in. Then another few weeks went by and the next thing I saw was the swan family! This was the only time that I saw them. They are usually way down the river and they look like little specs. I think they feel safer down at the end of the river.

Super cute and to say the least I was very happy for them!

I am still trying to put weight on Julius. He has only gained 2 lbs this month. I am feeding him a weight supplement and alfalfa along with hay and his grain twice a day. I did let the vet know so we will see what’s next.

Julius enjoys getting sprayed by the water hose!

Buttercup isn’t as excited to go in and eat. They bring there horses in to eat which is probably a good idea so you can control how much they get. They then stay out for the night in the warmer weather. We feed our horses before they go out for the day and when we bring them in for the night.

Hey there friends, in celebration of the long holiday weekend my Mom did nothing exciting. Which in her mind is sometimes nice! A nice quiet weekend at home.

After a visit to the vet and finding out Casey has Lyme disease again, he’s on a diet. He has gained 20 pounds over the last two years. So instead of dog bones he now gets carrots! I’m sure Mr Roosevelt would have a fit if he knew Casey is eating his supply of carrots! He seems to love them where I do not, poodles should be getting steak bones, not that awful tasting orange stick.

Way overgrown but still pretty! My thoughts and prayers are going out to the people who were at the parade in Highland Park trying to enjoy there day. This is not the America I know and love.
