    Down On The Farm

    Published by Pam Kessler | 171 words. · About 1 minute to read this article. -

    Well, I was going to show you some photos of a wonderful community garden that I visited this week, but I took a bazillion and one photos and now I have to weed them down to the top ten or so. Otherwise it will turn into a viewing of great Aunt Martha's vacation slides and no one wants that.

    Until then, here are some photos from the local farm that we love to go to. It's part of the local park system and is a working historical farm. It's the same farm that I showed you some fall photos of last October. My son and I go there a lot, just to visit the animals and see what they're growing.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend. I'm off to some garage sales this morning and might actually clean my house at some point today. Oh, and edit down all those photos from the community garden.

    What are your plans for this hot, hot weekend?

      I LOVE your photos, Pam. They are amazing!!! Love the sheep... the baskets... the barn! We're sticking close to home this weekend. We had a really busy week, and didn't get much accomplished on the home-front. Time to clean some toilets, and catch up on laundry. Oh yay. =/

      I can see why you love this farm!
      It's charming!!
      Pretty cool that it's still a working farm also.

      Hope you find some great stuff at the yard sales!

      I'm off to get ready for the drive-in movie 🙂

      Looks like a beautiful farm and great place to visit! I'm hoping to find a few yard sales and pulling out the last of the garden, it's pretty much shot:@)

      I really enjoyed this post and your images are just beautiful!! The animals look like they could be illustrations in a children's book!I am not sure what I am doing this weekend-either working on some projects or garage sales. Enjoy your weekend!

      What a wonderful place to take a child for a day trip. Did he get to feed those lovely geese? I'm so in my element when I'm around farm animals.

      What a gorgeous farm,Pam. One that is well-loved and taken care of! I am planning on working in the basement a bit this weekend- The BOYS in the family are all camping so I hope to have a little "down" time-xo Diana

      Such a beautiful farm Pam and your photos are just beautiful. Nothing quite as lovely to shoot, or more relaxing to visit, than our farms!

      ave a sweet weekend..I am shooting a wedding tomorrow morning, then Bill and I have a date afternoon/evening! Our Grace is still on vacation with her BFF's family. We are having dinner with friends and a movie then off to hear a band! : ) Then we will collapse because we are too old for such a big day! *laugh*

      Love,
      Sue
