•  Now that the dust is settling from the last two litters, it’s time to get busy with behind the scenes activities. 
  •  I am WAY behind on updating the website with pages for all the new puppy owners.  Please bear with me!  I am also trying to get used to the new website format, so that just adds to the issue.
  • In addition to the website, I am trying to get a new blog platform that I am comfortable with.  I tried a new one, but it is too confusing and too much to deal with right now.  I am not saying it was a bad platform, but I am just limited with the extra time I need to learn all the ins and outs.  For now I am back to blogging here.
  • I am investigating the other blog platform this website offers through Tumblr.  It looks to have promise. 
  • Our farm activity is now turned to the Miami County Fair.  The girls are showing their horses, and Zach is going a different route this year.  Instead of the usual goats and meat chickens, he is raising ducks and fancy birds.  Which are basically chickens, but are more for show than meat or eggs. 
  • We will miss Buckeye Dan at the fair.  This year, Hunter is Meranda’s horse, and Taylor will also be competing with a new horse we be picking up soon.
  • I completed Zach’s duck pen on the side of the barn.  I still need to make them a better “bed” or nesting spot because they are still small and need to stay warm.  We have a small one in place but it is only a temporary set up.
  • Hopefully, before too long, I can get started on the lean-to in the pasture.  This will allow the horses to have a permanent home on pasture, instead of the girls having to walk them back and forth to the barn every day.
  • Once that is done, we can finally expand down and add 3 more dog stalls.  They are MUCH needed.
