Our 'Farmer Boy'


...in his glory mowing the grass and making paths so we can hike around all 12 acres. We've always dreamed of making the property into a little park with trails and stops along the way where you can rest your feet or enjoy a picnic lunch. We have a couple of campsites, 'Pine Site', which is closest to the house and so named because it is set amongst the pine trees, and 'OutBack' because it is literally out back. Scorch Hill, which is in the background in the trees, was given it's name years ago by our daughter because it gets so hot there. There is a creek (which runs dry in the summer) and a bridge over it which leads up the hill and out to the back pasture. We usually get about 200 bales of hay off but this year we decided to keep it cut as a way to lessen allergies.
