Beginning of Fall

Well,

  I can't say it's cooling down because it has been a relatively cool summer and moist.  We never had to turn on the A/C this summer.   Grass has been green all throughout the season and we really haven't had to rotate pastures at all.   We're hoping to add some pasture boarding for the winter.  Some of the young chickens are beginning to lay and we're still waiting for one belted calf.  The garden is about done for the year and we're trying our hand at canning.  Because the summer has been so wet, their are plenty of fall wildflowers around and we're hoping the bees perk up again and start to put up some honey for the winter.  We're hoping to harvest honey next year.  It has been an interesting experience.  We're about finished with putting up hay for the year. It has been an interesting summer season.
