The other afternoon and evening, the entire farm and surrounding areas were covered in a haze of smoke. Is this anything to be concerned with? Nope! At least if you can see the fire is aways away and not headed towards you. I should probably warn you right here, this post is going to…
A Neat Ol’ Bridge
Quite awhile back, my dad snapped some pictures of this old bridge. He says he remembers driving across it when he was younger and there were still a few boards left. While dad was out snapping pics, mom sent me a text saying my father was turning into a “shutterbug” (I think she was mentally…
Before the Freeze
We just had a wonderful rain! Only downer to it is that it’s suppose to freeze hard tonight. And maybe snow. Ugh. So I wanted to go snap a few shots of the spring blooms and such before the cold front hit. Here’s a few: Hope you’re having a wonderful Sunday! Ashleigh
Jumper
– Meet Jumper (as the five-year-old named him), the baby cottontail one of the kids rescued from the jaws of our dog. – We only had him for a very short time (as we took him back to the nest) but he was showered with hugs, petting, and lots of love while we held him. …

The traffic, noise, and tight spaces have always bothered me. Some of my favorite little…
In Search of the Nest
The other day we noticed that one of our turkey hens was missing. We usually pen the turkeys up in their pen around sunset so that they won’t fly into the trees and roost. She showed up outside the pen a while after penning up the other birds. The next day we decided to let…
A Bird’s Eye View
This afternoon we were in the process of cleaning up around our farm and we found that our zip-line needed some tightening. So we tightened it and then my brother and I hitched a ride on the forks of the forklift. Before long, we were 20 feet above the ground… then 30… and finally 42…
Spring
The long cold winter is melting away A single redbird was spotted today Through the mist the sun is peeking Squirrels are about and acorn seeking New life has come to fields and woods Kids venture out in sweatshirts with hoods In just a few weeks the river will flow Blossoms on trees will be starting to…
