Lambs

We have lambs again 

 So far 4 rams and 1 ewe

Ice storm over the weekend

 

Most of the storm went north

Just a few branches came down 

And only a little freezing rain 

Barn tour

 

Feeding system is unusual 

we went for a barn our to Pfister dairy

it's a beautiful new barn

open at the top

fresh cow pens

we did enjoy coffee, apples and donuts

Sydenham Roads

 

Winter is a great time

to hike roads

and more roads

we saw some big fish

a field track

wet but not to bad

lots of old snow here yet

board walk

and a nice wild piece

with a big climb

not many have hiked here lately

because it can be dangerous

and we finished with more roads

Maple Keys

We walked in the Maple Keys sugar bush

Not sure if  you can walk around, we went in and back

 

Eagles

We went to look for eagles

they're far from the road but with a zoom you can see them

 

Game and swim

I asked Elijah if he wanted to play a gmae

he did, he had made his own game

It still needs some work

the rules kept changing

Saturday swimming lessons

for all 3 kids

 

Chores

The kids all have chores to do

Piano sounds better every time 

Laundry folding is a Saturday chore 

 When done they can have screen time, this time they chose Minecraft 

Stockyard

at the stockyard there are 4 ;anes for trailers like ours to unload

the stockyard is beside the farmer's market

Rien got the fastest dock

you don't get to choose so this was lucky

cows are off the trailer

paperwork filled in

it's efficient

Hoof trim

It's time to trim some hooves

not a favourite job

but it needs to get done

2 working together goes the fastest
