summer fever!

It might be time again!!!!

finally, a picture of me....

I seldom have any pictures of me on here--hard to do that when I'm the one always taking them, but I found this one of me and Doug on Amalia's facebook page. So I stole it! We had been snowshoeing, I think, and then decided to make sweet potatoes.

It was a beautiful sunny day today. I sat outside for at least a half hour sunbathing. Face sunbathing. What a glorious day. One of the great things about never having sun is that when it does decide to show itself, it is heavenly. Totally heavenly. Still on a bit of a high from it.

I think spring is on the way! This after stepping off the path and losing my leg. But still, it's on the way!! Woohoo!!!!

and more....

bday at the goat shui!

Doug and I had a great party at the Goat Shui, if I might say so myself! Lots of great friends, fabulous music, and a nighttime snowshoe. Who could ask for more? Seriously, the 40's just keep getting better and better! Hopefully Doug is enjoying his 20's just as much!!

Speaking of Doug:

snow!

We've had some amazing snow last week, so I took a few shots. I think this was Friday morning. I got up early (6ish) to snowshoe, and it was like being in a snowglobe. It was incredible. No wind, big fluffy flakes, and there must have been a couple of inches on all the branches and trees. Just beautiful. I'm into snowshoeing early these days. It wakes me up, and it's quiet. Pretty cool!

forgot a few things....

I'm going to reconvert the wood shed back into the wood shed this summer. The goats and Flower will have enough room in the old horse barn.

Richard is most probably shooting blanks, as the girls have come into heat again. Maybe that's the best thing for this year. If they do get pregnant, they won't deliver till the middle of summer, and I'm ok with that. More time would be good, and they will probably be healthier if it is warm out.

The geese and ducks are going to be permanently residing off the side of the horse barn where we kept the male turkeys last summer. It will need a little fixing up, but should do fine. They love winter, so I won't have to worry about them at all. Maybe Waddlesworth will actually have some babies this year. Hopefully we could sell them, although her eggs sure do taste great!

Think that's all.....
