Where did you get that grass from?

Our OSB's would have turned that over in minutes. 8)

Two of my grandsons spent a very happy and entertaining afternoon yesterday creating a wallow for the pigs. I don't know who ended up wetter and muddier!

Lovely pic.    Save it for a calendar for next year, will really cheer you up looking at that in mid winter.

It was hot enough for the ice cream yesterday!!  Grass has just started to come through this last week, but doubt it will be there long - piggies only moved to their new pen yesterday!!

Our dogs love chasing and retrieving the ball, and they get quite competitive. After a while they need to get a drink so Habasher (who usually ends up with the ball) goes to the water trough with the ball, drops the ball in the trough (which sinks), has a general paddle, soak and drink, then feels with his feet for the ball and dunks his head completely under to retrieve the ball from the bottom and returns to us for the next round of ball chucking  ;D
