Day Begins

"As the leaves blow in the cool fall air, I am reminded that winter will soon be here. The hay is stored in the barn, the firewood in the shed, and meat and produce preserved, I feel secure. My family sleeps as I kindle a fire in the cookstove. The kitchen warms. Fresh eggs and milk, bacon for breakfast. I am a father, husband, farmer, hunter and provider. Another day has begun." RW

Blizzard of 2013

Looking outside today, winter is holding tight to the land. The northeaster known as Memo, has dropped at least 24 inches of snow here, covering the nearly bare ground. It seems like this storm will be one to remember. In the goat barn we have two does born so far. Single births are rare but two in row is unheard of here. Time to feed the fires. See you soon.
