Heat Wave!

The bank thermometer in town read 96 degrees yesterday, it hasn't rained in ages, and all of us - plants, animals, and humans - are trying not to wilt. Nevertheless, we (the humans at least) maintain our enthusiasm about all the projects we have going right now.

The pullets are happy to be outside.




Someday they will lay giant eggs like Celeste does. Look at that monster!


Bees are buzzing.


But best of all, Pansy and Violet the goats just got two new pasture-mates! We haven't settled on names yet.

They are all getting to know each other, and we will be making our first goats' milk mozzarella tonight.
