This past weekend (Friday and Saturday) I visited a farm... and it was great, to say the least! I did sooooo many new things, like...
- Milked cows
- Petted a NEW BORN (same day) calf
- Shot a gun
- Went on a 4-wheeler ride
- Went deer-shining
- Played croquet in the dark
- Played fruit/veggie baseball
- Got up at 5:30 for chores
- Saw both the sunrise and sunset on the same day
There was great fellowship as 5-10 Navigators from UWEC fed cows, sloshed through manure, wrangled up calfs, hit old tomatoes into outfield, ate delicious home-cooked meals, garage-saled, and just spent time together. Here's some pictures to show you what all I'm talking about. :)
Overall, it was a beautiful weekend! The weather was great, my face even got sunburnt! I wouldn't say I left the experience wanting to live on a farm, but I definitely learned a lot and appreciate milk so much more! :)
What a fun bunch of new stuff you have experienced! Did you drink any warm, fresh milk? I bet it tasted Mongolian! :) I love your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI have many of the same memories from when I was a young girl and visited my Aunt & Uncle on their farm. Back then I wanted to marry a farmer and live the experience..... But God saw fit that I become a city slicker!!! Where would you be today had I married and lived on a farm??????????????? :) Love you! Nana
