What's happening at the farm this week...

You can tell it's been a busy time--not a lot of time for blogging. We've been busy working on the picnic area, moving a shed to the pasture for the horses, starting restoration of the antique tractors, overseeing the trail construction and shearing llamas. We also welcomed home a new llama yesterday! His name is Sir Black Lightning. He's by far the biggest llama we have. He was living with a very nice family nearby who were a bit intimidated (understandably) by his size and felt he needed a new home. We are excited to try him out here and work at overcoming his fears--like being touched anywhere but his face! Two of us walked him the 3 mile trip home. He did great--never spooked once, but did lie down in the road for a rest halfway! It's so nice to be enjoying summer on the farm!

Here are some pictures of Sir, moving the roof of the shed and Eddie's homemade tractor restoration paint booth!
