First one...

in the books!

Miss A showed in her first livestock show this weekend.



She did well.

She was the only one to enter the ring with no halter on her lamb.

That's a Grandma rule.

If you did the work at home you don't need a crutch in the ring.

The lamb was jumpy from standing around waiting but she successfully set her up.

Next show is in 3 weeks.

Practice, practice, practice...


Dad (Z on right) doesn't think she has lamb perfect but for the first time it's all good.
Onward and upward!

Small getaway and stuff

I impulsively took a 5 day getaway with friends about a month ago.

J and D are pseudo parents/family to me. 

You know, always there with advice, comfort, help, etc.

J drag races so off to Rockingham we went in the Motorhome.

J and his son J Jr were racing.

D and I were "crew".

D fed us so well I gained a few #s.



This is J's car at another track.
I only have videos from NC and I cant seem to post them on this computer.

Around the "homestead"....


Things are popping up. 


It is a process to get the results I had at the other place.


Some volunteers are much appreciated though.
Removing dead and dangerous trees resulted in dormant plants regenerating.


At Z's house ...


Grandma and A are still working on her lambs.
Her first solo show is next weekend.
Fingers crossed!
