I’m sorry I keep sharing with everyone about my Mother. I know that it can become depressing after a while but she had taken a turn for the worst over the last couple of weeks and I’ve spent a lot of time with her and not much here at the farm. It is my pleasure [...]

What a year! I can’t say that I’m glad it’s almost over because that would be wishing my life away and at my age, that’s not a good plan. I can’t believe how fast this year flew by. With Mother’s illness the first 3 months of the year and finishing out the last 2 months [...]
Rain & Sog – Enough of A Good Thing!
Posted in General, goat's, goat's milk soap, yarn, tagged goat milk soap, goat's, goats milk on December 10, 2009 | 3 Comments »
As we are all learning..too much rain (and in some cases snow) is becoming “enough of a good thing”. After our major down pouring of Tuesday evening our farm could easily become a “rice patty”. There isn’t a square inch of this property that isn’t sog. I’ve actually had to milk the goats outside for [...]

I thought that today I would share all of the beautiful photos of our first snowfall in Powhatan, VA…well there aren’t any!! This was the puniest little snow I’ve seen in a while. Instead of pretty, we have more mud, ice and cold. I will say that the oat fields on either side of us [...]

You met this guy on Wordless Wednesday a few weeks ago..today I want to share his story. While out running the Border Collies, Monday morning, several weeks ago, we heard a Rooster crowing. Around here we have sheep, goats, cows, horses, dogs and cats..no chickens. That’s just not something anyone close by raises and after [...]

This is a Blog Post from ” All Things Goat” that I found to be interesting listening. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Cashmere Goats: Mongolia Sunday, September 20, 2009 Mongolian goat farmers have seen the price of Cashmere plunge after years of high prices driven by the West’s seemingly insatiable desire [...]
My Favorite Time of Year

This photo was taken at a friends farm in the Shenandoah Valley last year. I use it throughout the year as a screen saver..when it doesn’t look like this here. In a couple more weeks, I’ll have more photos of Fall to remind me of my favorite time of year. There is something so incredibly [...]
Short One….

I posted to my Blog on September 28, 2009..making reference to a song “Sheep Go To Heaven…Goat’s Go To Hell”. Someone either commented on the post or emailed me (not sure which because I can’t find the question that was asked) and asked who did the song. Well through a bit of research, I found [...]
Ricky & Holly’s Great Adventure

The other day we heard a song, “Sheep Go To Heaven…Goat’s Go To Hell”. Being the owners of both, we could definitely see how someone could come up with a song like this, however this morning our new Icelandic girls tried to make good on sheep going to heaven – sort of. Yesterday marked the [...]
