Finally - a new post!


A long time since the last post - but here is spring at Sugar Pea Farm!  Obviously, we love our Braque du Bourbonnais and our working farm collie.  Not to mention 9 hens and 1 roo!  Soon will quickly come a small slew of cattle!  And of course, our garden grows!  More garden shots to follow....

Dog Days

Though the intense summer heat has just really begun, these two had to take a play break on the cool concrete patio floor.  A couple of BFF's chilling on the porch...

Maxwell's a Silver Hammer

Ain't he sweet? He has no idea what is in store for him as we move to a small farm with loads of animals, especially birds, to chase! While only about 7 months, he seems to have reached his "terrible twos" with two dog beds destroyed in as many nights. We're consulting with BIL Ed who has had several dogs to see what are options are. I can't stand letting him sleep without a nice cozy bed! Maybe chain mail?

In the meantime, I've bought him a baby pool, thinking he would welcome it in these 95 degree days. So far he's gotten two paws in and then looked at me like I was crazy! Now what's really crazy is that I got in the pool with him to show him how it's done. Not a pretty sight I'll tell you. On the home front, we are going back with to Doyle for hopefully our last signing off on the removal of the restriction that Paul can run a business from home and that no neighbor will be allowed to place a junkyard on their property. Believe me, this is a community that does not need restrictions on gunfire, but restrictions on junkyards. Home sweet home! Maybe as soon as the next week or two.
