Throwback at Trapper Creek 
Ooooh, there’s nothing quite like a barn stuffed full of fresh hay to see you through the winter, is there? I’m glad this year’s haying appears to have gone well!
Yep, it’s nice it’s all in the barn now. And no rain.
Nice… but you didn’t have to shout! lol
🙂
What a beautiful nose you found 🙂 It looks like you and the gang know what life’s all about. I wish you feel that way too. Thanks.
She likes to stick that nose everywhere!
Loved the Jane nose! What are you digging?
That’s the deep bedding pack from winter getting piled for next year. 🙂
is that bobcat managing a compost/manure pile or are you giving hugelkultur beds a try…? Always wanted to incorporate some sepp holzer into my practices.
theShane, it’s the deep bedding pack from winter getting stacked for next year. A passive compost pile similar to hugelkultur beds without the planting. 🙂
my life (all the way over in New Zealand) is richer for the glimpses into your world. thank you so much for sharing. you’re an inspiration.
Thank you!
love it all , especially “the nose” and the pup snoozing in the garden. happy wednesday to you!
ohhhh, I want to climb those bails of hay and see the dust in the sunbeams….
Awesome late summer photos….especially that last one of the Harvest moon! 🙂
I love the pictures with all the beads of moisture. A wonderful story in pictures. – Margy
