Calm After the Storm

Back with power after last night's severe thunderstorms.  Very heavy rain and high winds left us without electricity for approximately twelve hours.  The result was an early bedtime and lazy Fourth of July morning.  Luckily, everything is intact and we are back in action but still a bit lazy.  We had a nice lunch with the goats out in the pasture.  They enjoyed their grass and clover while we dined on "Vermonter" sandwiches.




Our posts have been quite sparse lately due to our busy schedules and travels.  Many of our projects have been crossed off of lists.  The animals are tucked in for the most part.  The goats are obviously doing well and are rapidly closing on being weaned from their bottles.  There is semi-harmony in the chicken coop and we are anxiously awaiting some blue or green eggs.  Lastly, the turkeys continue to impress with their growth rate and smelliness.  Our garden appears to have gained a bit of momentum with the recent rain and warm temperatures.  We  have been eating fresh cut salads and made garlic scape pesto the other evening.  We are also rapidly approaching the VT 100K...send good vibes our way.  In all, it has been a beautiful summer so far.  We hope to post to you soon.
