Life On and Off an Acreage

In-sights into moving from an Acreage back to Town, plus a few things I find of interest.

Two things that horses are scared about:


1. Things that move

First Sign Spring is Coming.


 Friday, sunny and +11C! Life is good on the Acreage!

Unless, of course, you are still wearing a heavy winter coat!

A trip through the bush and who decides he is going to track us? Why Boots, of course.


Look, dad, I can out roll a horse! It feels so goooood!


Yep, really goooood!

Happy March...Oops!

Oops, it's only January 9! Here we are once again at +10C (50F) and the water is running off the fields, the trees are budding, and the grass is showing! Talk about a mixed up climate! The "normal" high for this date  is -7C ( 20F).





For a link that offers a good explanation as to what is going on  with the North American weather, drop into Global Disaster Watch. She offers some really neat stuff.

 The fields are really slippery and the horses are not moving around much. Mind, you, they are a lazy bunch to start with, eat drink, and sleep, repeat.
