Elk...

The elk usually come down from the timber

in the evening...

then eat all night long in the hay fields...

today, they came down in the morning

and spent the entire day browsing...

This is the view out our living room window...

they are really something to see!

Their calves will be born late Spring.

Dresden Plate Quilt.....

1930's Depression Era

Reproduction Fabrics

400 pieces.....cut out last evening

I enjoy working with these fabrics so much,

cutting 400 pieces......went by quickly.

I snuck into the Thread Shed for a couple of hours

to stitch a few of these beauties together...

20 blades per block...

20 blocks needed for this quilt top...

I managed to sew 6 blade units together,

then it was time to go across the river

and check for new calves...

Here is our newest baby.....Calf Number 32

A tender moment between

Mama Cow and her bull calf

On the right is Big Marv...

he was raised on a bottle 2 years ago.

He welcomes all of the new babies...

we call him Uncle Marv.

Our little goat herd is growing...

the new kid goats are over 2 weeks of age

and growing so quickly.

 It was over 80 degrees the last few days...

the goats still have their winter hair

and they are suffering a bit from the heat.

each and every round.
