“The pastures of the wilderness run over
and the hills are girded with joy.
The meadows are clothed with sheep
and the valleys stand so thick with corn
that they shall laugh and sing.”
— Psalm 65, verses 12 & 13 (from here)
The Rest of the Chicks

A Friday ritual.
A single photo – no words – capturing a single moment from the week.
A simple, special extraordinary moment.
A moment to pause, savor and remember.

(honor and praise for Samson this week following his brave attempt to save Erma, our last guinea, from the fox)
Peeking in on the Peeps
The peeps are growing… as peeps are bound to do… and enjoying their treats of brush hogged grass, weeds from the garden, etc. This little group is pretty quiet and calm. The bigger group of Rhode Island Reds and Jersey Giants moved into their expanded coop at the farmhouse last week. We will try to share some pictures of them soon. The Jersey Giants are living up to their name and are significantly bigger than all the others. They are being raised for a brother-in-law and his family.

Settling In
The ewes have also settled down and are enjoying their (well deserved) rest and relaxation in the back pasture.

Weaning Day
A very hot, long day but very productive… think we are still recuperating.
