Plants and animals...

Helen's rock garden.

Her corn crop.

And beautiful sun flower.

Her pigs.

Our 3 new Mamma's with 5 babies.  We let them all out for a few hours at the end of the day.  We keep the babies penned for the first 3 weeks now to keep the coyotes from picking them off.  We have not lost a baby to preditors since we started keepng them penned until they are old enough to follow without falling behind.

This is Cher's two boys.  Almost 2 weeks old.  

Here are all the new babies right after we turned them out.

It rained a little last night.  I am going to try to go for a walk anyway.  It is overcast now, but seems to have stopped raining.

The girl is glad to be back home, but she had a good time.  Her and her one friend stayed in a cabin with a bunch of teenagers.  I was afraid that would not work well, but she said they were all really nice.  Last year she stayed in a cabin with girls from Coin.  She did say she knew some of the girls, and they knew Emmy.  Anyway, she had a good time and it was fine.  This after noon we are taking them to the creek if it is not raining.  Off to walk now.
