Meanwhile, at the Luxury Resort…

The resort keeps sensible hours around here.

First light is for me and my tea. The herd stays close to the barn while our guardian dog checks what the night left behind — coyotes love that half-light, and she knows it better than anybody.

By mid-morning, once the sun is up and she's cleared the tree line, the finest dining in the county opens: the brush line. Leaves, twiggy bits, whatever the hedgerow is serving… and if the Gator happens to be parked nearby, well, that becomes part of the resort too.

Folks are paying good money to rent slow mornings like this one.

I just live here. 🌿

We're Back Wandering

Well, hello again.

This little corner of the internet went quiet for a while farm life has a way of filling every day all by itself.

But the goats are still here, browsing the brush line, inspecting every gate, every bucket, and every pumpkin like it is their full-time job. Because it is.

So we're back. A note here now and then ... slow mornings, happy goats, and whatever the season is teaching us out in the pasture.

If you wandered over from Instagram, welcome. The follow-along links are right there in the sidebar ... come wander with us.

Goat Shelter - Hay House

 Do your goats need shelter but are not ready to put up your dream barn? If you have large round bales this is a great option. We place big round bales (over 1500 lbs) in a U shape and put a simple flat roof on the top built with 2 by 4's and Plywood. We seal the seams with all weather rubber sealant. 

In our experience in Kansas these hay houses last about 2 yrs before needing to be replaced. The roof is removed with a tractor and loader with bale forks. Once the new bales in place the roof is put back on. 

For growing kids these hay houses double as an exercise equipment.
