Spring has sprung

Spring has finally sprung. Auntie Tita just missed the warm weather. A few pics of Auntie Tita's visit below - we really miss her, as well as a few pictures of spring on the farm. Aunt Claire also made a visit - please come back soon. Enjoy!

"Decapitating" the magnolia blossoms must be some form of ikebana....

Showing Auntie Tita the sights, here's Auntie Tita on the rocks... (this could be a new drink!)

Thanks goodness for warm bunny suits (thanks Katrine & Alistar) when there's a power failure...(which Melia actually made into a fun time for me and Auntie Tita)

Making sure her niece is properly dressed (thanks for the euro shoes Dave & Lis)

We knew we could make a country girl out of her!

A recent picture of "Farmer" Bloch who was recenty "shorn" and looking all the better for it!

Aunt Claire visits the farm and brought us some lovely flowers.

OK enough for now, we're all wiped out.

The Scene of the Crime

Ok, so one day a few weeks back, Melia and I came back to the farm in the car and normally Laurella will come running up to the fence, especially now since Donnie is away (I think she expects the horse trailer to be in tow), but on this particular day...there was no Laurella greeting. Needless to say, given the antics we know she is capable of, I got suspicious. I put Melia down for a nap, and took a walk outside to investigate. You wouldn't have needed to be Colombo to solve this crime...I think the pictures speak for themselves. I was laughing so hard, I had to run back for the camera. As I was cleaning up the mess, I was thinking to myself, I sure hope she enjoyed herself. And, I give her some serious dexterity points for opening the latch! I will be padlocking those stable doors, and moving my stash of empty feedbags elsewhere!! Come to think of it, I better hide the car keys as well. And of course she would pick a rare rainy day to do this!

What are you looking at? There's nothing to see here...

Leave no bag unturned...there may just be some leftovers in there!

Who, me?
