Besides being so interesting, there is always something to learn in your telling ...and those wonderful photos!! Another plus...all the gorgeous scenery you capture with that ever present camera!

But went to look out the living room window into the shadowy backyard, where to my surprise the calves where running in circles! Looked like they had a game of chase going. Everyone was routed out of bed then to entice the mommas and babes back in.Munger Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322903003908661085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-57155051632960218792014-06-20T10:22:33.193-07:002014-06-20T10:22:33.193-07:00Your blog makes me even more excited to return to ...Your blog makes me even more excited to return to rural life. 18 mos ago we moved from our rural home in Wa to Priest River for a job. 2 biggest mistakes of my life. Leaving my SAHM life and going back to work which = my kids going to Public School which did not last long. 2nd biggest mistake moving to town. In August we are moving to 10 lovely acres at the base of HooDoo Mt. On an old Christmas Tree farm and I CAN NOT WAIT. It is a berm home built in the 70's. I would have moved to a shack to get out of town. BUT! God is so good and gracious and we found this lovely rental and may get to buy it in a few years. Back to the life I love. Back to my chickens, homeschooling, herb growing, quilt making, long winters tucked inside, short summers working hard. What was I thinking giving it up before. NEVER AGAIN!

It's hard to tell, but I don't think anyone bred. Lucky for us, there were no repairs required. Just an extra chain on the gate for insurance. But, even with these types of experiences, life on the farm is great, don't you think?<br /><br />Fern<br />Frank and Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570058990887565563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-30599384708674431712014-06-20T00:31:04.076-07:002014-06-20T00:31:04.076-07:00Just an FYI: You've got a hockey school ran by...Just an FYI: You've got a hockey school ran by Wayne Gretzky's son coming into Coeur D'Alene July 27th to August 1st. Some big names that are friends of his dad will be coming too so it might be a bit of a circus there. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
