saturday snaps


Yesterday we got our first serious snow of the season.
About 8" of light but sticky snow.

Small plants seem to get a disproportionate load of snow.


Maybe it's character-building?

The youngest goats have seen a lifetimes-worth of ice already,
but this was their first "real" snow...


and it did not slow them down one bit.



While all the goats were tied for their breakfast buckets,
I took a few minutes to enjoy the west view from the barn.
The tree in the center of the image
is a magnificent red oak, Quercus rubra.


I hope you are having a lovely weekend wherever you are!
