The Original Goats

Got a little dirty today

Lovely morning

It's a busy day if I get more than 1 car pass my place per day

Tractor beam...I mean solar install complete 

Logging trail

Another peaceful morning

Danny Boy taking a bath

Santos helping me attach my new sprayer

The logging road from above

Second attempt at hens...RIP

Yes, that's a timber rattler

Ummm... something looks good for lunch

Sniper

Thank you. Have a bless-ed day now.

Just dozed a hiking trail

Pretty nice little afternoon we got going

Love the Le Sabre

I'm official

3rd attempt at chickens...triple enforced

Building a new deck today

Hooking up the tiller for the first time

My old reliable...until the battery died and the transmission blew up

Lazy Sunday

Completed new luxury dog condos...but they prefer to live in dirt...sigh

Another day...another expensive implement breaks

Finally new flooring, carpeting and painting complete. Almost feels like home

3rd time is a charm...? 

Little slice of America

Ole Miss vs LSU... yeah Northwestern and IU didn't have anything on this college football experience

Fixing the fences

Bought this livestock trailer

Lovely morning walk with the doggies

Cutting firewood

I think that's a beet coming in!

Baby copperhead while strolling

Ready for winter

Another morning

8 acres prepped for planting next spring

Pulled out dozens of bucket-loads of plastic grass seed mats in pastures...something biodegradable would have been nice

My new great Pyrenees puppies, Winona Ryder and Bette Midler (Winny and Betty)

Experienced the birth of piglets at my neighbors' farm 

I grew a massive radish

Installed new flooring and carpeting in Sept...AND...my fridge leaked => black mold - great

Winny and Betty are not big Northwestern Wildcat fans

The chickens are growing up

Greenhouse arrived

Vet day for puppies

Fire pit ready to go...just need to meet 3 people in MS

Bought a Grand Marquis as an emergency backup

Album cover 2

Sniper on way to vet

DB and Sniper have heart worms...they do not like being confined...sad

Solid

DB sat on a mouse trap...let's just say I never thought I'd be removing a mouse trap from my dog's behind

Sunny but super cold

Pipes froze in frigid temps... homeownership is not agreeing with me

Converted greenhouse into dog shelter for frigid temps

Sniper still under the weather from heart worm treatment

Kind of bleak in winter

Miss St vs #8 Auburn...I think maroon looks better than the sky blue of Ole Miss

Fernie is as disappointed as me in Indiana basketball

My mechanic

The doggies killed and quartered a large deer...

Grim

Hunters always throwing trash so I custom made the litter sign - no one has shot it yet!

Put a facing on open side of the 3-sided barn. Goats and puppies will be very comfy

3rd time this week stuck in

Puppies found Bambi

First eggs!

Peach trees blooming

Magnolia trees blooming

Loaded up and brought home more goats

Welcome to your new home

Logging road far from house is a magnet for hunters and their dogs...so fenced it

Been incredibly wet this spring...flooded everywhere

6 dump truck loads of dirt only the beginning to fix the damage from rain + heavy vehicles

In the pig business now

Mama had 8 piglets

Growing already

Kids are pretty cute

Kids in a feed bowl

Yes, Juice broke his leg

Seriously...again? 

My Cousin Jean Francois visited and helped on farm

RIP my best companion

RIP my fierce companion

A really hard day

Sniper is loving being dog #1 though

Vision complete...a working farm

Cooling off in the sun

More babies

Sniper is a good pilot

Even more babies

That makes 5 kids in 3 weeks

Toad in my shoes

Couple snakes got in the hen house

Made my first salad entirely of CFG Farms grown veg

Dusk

Lots of squash coming up

Pig nibble

'Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... MASS HYSTERIA!'

Getting huge

House dog and Goat dogs love

Baby watermelons...

Foreboding

Unwanted visitor in my front door

Pickling game getting strong

Lethargic in the humidity

RIP loving friend

Someone slept in dirt last night

That's what over 500lbs of fresh, organic and my own pork looks like

Wiped out a ton on ramp last winter... this should help

Lush this time of year

Rescued this little one

And this girl

Fernie not thrilled about her new sister

Lots of dirt work before winter to avoid spring flooding

Sharpening bush hog blades looks insanely dangerous

Lovable...5 seconds later they tore a rabbit to shreds

Finally got around to building up the cabin

Cabin was piled high with junk when I moved in

Turnips, radishes, kale and mustard greens coming in really well

A sign = official

A puppy munched on a goat's face..she required stitches but  is healing well 

Leaves turning

Merch is spreading

4 new kids...2 moms...poppa seems to be the same

3 more kids...that's 7 in 10 days with a few more to come

My friend Adam visited to help

Pyrenees still growing...

Baby getting along with slightly older but much bigger puppy
