Howdy from the farm! - pic heavy!
 

I've been away! OK... I haven't really 'been' anywhere but I've been away from the forum as winter blazed in to spring and farm life geared up into overdrive.

In the last month the cows have had 8 new calves, goats have dropped 5 sets of twins and 3 sets of triplets, there have been 3 litters of piglets, over 100 chicks hatched, probably more then that in ducks and I have six geese setting.

The garden is in and the orchard has set fruit.

Another son is planning a wedding here that will finally happen tomorrow and we will gain another daughter and in due time would love to see some more grandchildren from this union.

We are blessed beyond measure! And so with all those blessings I thought I'd like to drop in and share some pictures with you all.

I think your 4th and 5th pictures down from the top are amazing! If you crack their eggs like a 3 or 4 day before they're due to hatch, will they still be alive and blinking?

Have REALLY missed you around here! You have definitely been busy, and hard at work! Wow! Love all the pictures!!!! Not much has changed around here, still the same yak yak about the usual stuff, but have really missed your input and sense of humor!

Love the bees!

I am jealous since we live in an HOA neighborhood I can't have hardly anything. I may have to visit the next meeting, string bean casserole in hand and a Lincoln-like speech ready to give, to try and change things.
