 Yes, I can! Peekaboo! These little elk babies are growing so fast! They wander out and about quite a bit these days, but when they're not actively on the move, they still like to "hide" in the grass. They're not quite as good at it as they used to be!  I mean, don't get me wrong, if you don't know they're there, they would still be easy to miss, but I see one... two... three babies hiding in the grass.  Honestly, if it's weren't for the flies, it might be harder to find them, but those darn pests have been horrific this year! The babies put their heads down and disappear and then have to bring them up again a moment later to shake the flies off. I've been trying all kinds of crazy things trying to control the biting fly population. Nothing has put a dent in the population yet. Poor things!  The babies are so fun to watch. Sometimes, they make it a bit hard to get my work done because I just like to sit out there and talk to them. At them? :-)  But, I mean, really! Can you blame me? Who wouldn't want to hang out with a cutie like this?

Farm LifeI was born and raised in the suburbs, but by the time I hit high school, something didn't feel right... part of me just felt empty. Farm life isn't for the faint of heart, but it fills you like nothing I've ever known, and as a gal who has only been able to farm for about a third of her life, I've seen the options! Farmers work hard, love hard, lose hard. But it's all part of deep living. When you see everything come full cycle, it helps you keep perspective about what really matters. I love farm life, and I wouldn't choose to live any other way. Archives
