I tend to buy animals that are unique. Buford has become more and more a porch goat. He loves laying on the porch and relaxing, he has been showing evidence of being on the outdoor furniture but hasn’t been caught on it. He loves being around people and I love how sweet he is. TodayContinue reading “Porch goat and paint”

I am not one that likes to shop without a purpose, unless it is thrift shopping. On the farm I do not want brand new everything, I like character in our home. I don’t mind putting a little elbow grease into a project to give something new life. Chad does an amazing job with paintContinue reading “Bargains and volcanoes”

My dad and mom went to the small animal auction and bought a pig. They were told it was a KuneKune at the auction but it didn’t look like one to me. My dad named the pig Arnold, he seemed to be quite timid and he was a little guy hopefully he is sweet. WeContinue reading “Here pig pig”

We have been living full time in the RV for almost 2 1/2 years. If Chad had told me 11 years ago that in the future we would live in an RV full time, I would have told him he was crazy. But here we are killin’ it, well most days that is. RV livingContinue reading “Back to RV life”

Everything went well with the laundry room except one of the washers is showing a code now so we will have to get that repaired eventually. I am sure my mom is glad not to have to go to the laundromat anymore. We cleared out the hill behind the house to keep varmints from gettingContinue reading “Last few days in Kentucky”

As you know we have been using an outhouse, and a shower tent with an on demand shower we found on Amazon in the basement since we bought the property. Since the home we purchased was an Amish home and had no indoor plumbing it has been quite the chore to put in indoor plumbing.Continue reading “Big News”

Today the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. We had some delicious cinnamon rolls for the Amish store up the road. Dad reminded me first thing this morning that I forgot to tell about him torturing me with the fake mouse cat toy yesterday. I was minding my own business, being theContinue reading “Building a bathroom”

Yesterday morning I took Hunter to meet his new doctor to establish care. The doctor was very nice and did great with Hunter. So I guess she is a keeper. Afterwards, we stopped by a local Amish store called The Dinner Bell and got some cookies for breakfast (they had oatmeal in them, so theyContinue reading “Work hard, play hard”

I brought the last load of items out of our storage unit to the farm until we move here permanently, years down the road. The drive is 18.5 hours not including any stops, traffic, road closures, detours, gas and potty breaks. I wanted to drive straight through but that didn’t happen. We did get intoContinue reading “Back in Kentucky”

Most people go years living in a home without speaking to your neighbors. Since buying the farm we have had several neighbors step up and have been the best. We had one neighbor in Utah, and she was the best ever and we miss her dearly. Maybe I can talk her into moving near usContinue reading “Neighbors”
