"Official" start of summer, so Acorn told the cats they had to hand out under th3 carport, where they USED to hang out until they figured out how to go in and out of the dog door. Speaking of which, the door has been boarded up until it begins to freeze. The farmers spent almost 3 hrs cleaning the porch of cat hair, bunny fur and various tidbits but alas! The screen porch is now useable 24/7 and risk of cat hair floating into morning coffee has been greatly reduced.Blind Hog has the

2024/05/05

The time came for out last two Dexter cattle to be sent to the butcher. We did arrange for "on farm kill" for Mr Tasty the steer (the last calf born on the farm) and our good old Calpurnia (one of the first calves who arrived at the farm). Will not get into all the arguments defending the decision to "eat a family member" but I will say this, she had a goodly bit of fat cover, had not run around in years, and to just bury her would have been such a waste.Mr Tasty on the other

Blind Hog and Acorn said goodbye to Skittles the macaw this week- the houseguest went back home. In fact, the neighbors sent pictures- they have cleared the location of the house, pushed all the remains in a pile and will haul the metal to the recyclers. The site looks great. Is also helpful when you own a bulldozer and Colleen likes to run her dozer...Asparagus is doing great- three pickings so far. Geese have not gone totally broody yet. THAT is frustrating Acorn to no end.Bottle kids are

After several hours of researching, Acorn found a washer dryer pair that fit the bill for the farm- no fru fru cycles, no wifi enabling... Just the facts, ma'am... LG 3400... The washer has run its first test load of clean towels, no leaks noted. Now the dryer is being tested... VOILA! Even better, it was on sale when ordered and then 5 days later, dropped in price!
