WE HAVE HAD COOLER WEATHER THAN USUAL:: it is finally sunny and 70 and we might get the hay in...and fire wood that has been done for over 8 months just need to get the logs here and cut up and then stacked in wood shed looks like it could be a nasty winter and fall...next year am hoping it is better and we put in alot of taters to fill the garden up so should have taters for 4 of us for the whole winter, will put 2 pigs in freezer and 1 large calf in freezer and hope to be able to buy some hamburger from a friend if she kills a bull,,,,and maybe a few goats and a llama or two.....think we are the only place along with maine that has been cool in the states..take care and keep the faith and god bless ya all
