Team Work!

If "a picture is worth a thousand words", I hope this post will use that expression to its fullest potential.

While looking through my pictures recently I was reminded of just how much we have accomplished and experienced this summer.  So, I decided to post a bunch of photos with captions.   Enjoy!

Ben and I came out one morning wearing matching attire.
Guess that's bound to happen when you buy your t-shirts from the same farmer.  :)

4th of July parade

We built a new corral at our most recently acquired rental property.
This was a cool project!

our first time using the new corral and chutes --  "Round 'em up and move 'em out!"

Hay making this year was a little choppy due to rain.

The gardens were looking nice and sharp for the PIDS
(Polyface Intensive Discovery Seminars) in July.  Yes, we enjoy lots of fresh produce.

Don't let this photo fool you ... it is really serious business.

The broiler pen factory is in full swing.  We had to replace about twenty-five pens
due to storm damage in July.

OK,.... me playing around.   Make life fun!!
