Farm Life

Percy and Priscilla at the watering hole

I'm sure most of you are tired of hearing me say that

I LOVE living in the country.

But I REALLY do.

 

Corn fields across the road

Looking south. Our nearest neighbor is about 3/4 of a mile away. I think there are 6 farms along this 4 mile stretch. To the north our nearest neighbor is about a half mile away.

I have wanted to live in the country since I was a child.

They bailed the hay on two sides of us.

I did get to live on a farm in British Columbia when I was little

but it was only for a short time.

Then we moved onto an orchard in the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia

but again it was only for a short time.

Priscilla chasing the young chickens from her puddle

I never forgot those wonderful times and always wished that 'one day'

that dream would become a reality.

Now I'm living my dream.

Priscilla complaining to me about the cats being in the barnyard (she doesn't like that!)

Priscilla chasing the cats away from me. She's pretty protective.

Every morning when I get up in my cute little farm cottage and look outside my kitchen window towards the vegetable garden and barnyard

I am so grateful to be living here

                          

The old farmhouse. The screened porch will go on this end of the house.

Raspberries

I love this sign

One of the few potted flowers on the farm. Next year will be better.

Time to come in and make breakfast!

I hope you're living your dream.
