Good Day For A Fire

Our hay guy cleared our back pasture about two years ago, we just got around to burning the gigantic pile of debris that he stacked up. It sat out there so long due to the massive drought we have had for the last year or so, I was afraid to touch that pile off in case we set the whole county on fire.
After the rain we have had in the last few month I figured it would be safe, and so far so good!!
Its been burning a couple days , mind you this pile was about fifteen feet tall by 20 feet wide, so if it would have really gone up it would have been a mess. And of course I forgot the camera until the very end. But I did get a pic of the column of smoke... enjoy!! hehehe

Farmlife Photo Tour

Howdy!,

Well Its been a little busy around here lately and I haven't posted anything in a while, and I was going thru some farm pixs , so I figured I'd post a few for your viewing pleasure, hope you like 'em!

This one is of Clemetine or mini donkey, she's so sweet, she lets the chickens ride around on here back!



Here are two of the many Alpine goat kids that we have had around here, they are always alot of fun.


I took this while playing around with the settings on the camera, this guy is now named Poindexter, He has since turned all black and is in the running to be the herd bull around here.





Again I was messin with the camera and got this nosey donkey, Its Darlin , she was born here on our place, she's also in the next picture as a newborn too.


And a shot of some of the many different colors of chickens around here, they make some good eggs!


So there you go , I hope to get back to some frequent posts here soon, Thanks for coming bye!

Lucille on the milker.

We have started share milking, that is taking some milk from Lucille while keeping the calf on her for his milk. Now before anyone starts to call the SPCA , Lucille wont give away more than she needs for the calf, she just wont do it! This cow has a built in faucet, that she can turn off at will, or at least she acts like she can. So anyway , Lil' Roller isn't hurting for milk that's for sure!

So without further delay, here for your picture viewing pleasure...the photos
Here is the star of the show, or at least he thinks so. He's gettin' brave anymore. That's Lucille hooked up to the milking machine, she's eating so don't bother her she's eating.




He is getting bigger by the day, and nosy too!



He can't wait for his turn!

Well that's all for now, we'll see ya nest time!
