Thank you to those that served and and sacrified

Veterans Day.

Too many have lost their lives or limbs, for the sake of war. To give peace? to Nations.

I watched WAR HORSE this morning. I was up early and Grandson was sleeping peacefully. 2 1/2 hours of gripping movie. Reminder of some of the wars we've been through.

We call it HISTORY now. and host parades and memorials to remember.

How Veterans Day was founded

Remember those still out there, away from home..... and their families.

Blessed by God,

Life's good @ the Bright side of the Barn.

Thanks for stopping by, 

Until next time, Stay safe and Happy Trails.

New Changes

Big sigh of relief, big wave of stress ~ gone.
 A consistency I've been waiting and working towards for a long time... many adjustments to come including insurance... but
Finally, we can grow roots!

Life has taken on the perspective I've longed for and now for the new routine... There's been a few deletions and additions here @ The Bright side of the Barn. I think we'll be growing at a steadier pace now as well. Many new stories and still so many old ones to share... I've had animals around me all through life and they have told many a tales. Some sad, some happy, some to chuckle for and some so unbelievable, you might think I'm making it up.

 I've added the Calendar, as we get new chicks and the hens start nesting, there will be dates and anticipation to hatching. Birth of baby goats to come... I'd love to get together for some fishing expeditions locally, my grandson is loving it. And trail rides are always more fun together so hopefully we can round up some riders, through the public calendar and the new forums...

{free roaming or chicken cooped?}

The forums, They are totally empty and ready for new beginnings. Questions, advice answers... Whatever happens in the barnyard is a relevant topic. Join in and build up some great reference materials for future farmers.

I've been getting eggs consistently every day and in addition to the kids benefiting there have been a few sales.... Flats (30 eggs) $5.00 and Dozens for $2.00. Might have to get more chickens too!

We shall be trying to breed Phoebe next spring and perhaps raw goats milk is in the future. Remember Blackberry, strawberry and blueberry jams coming in the fall. (I'm loving canning). Apple sauce didn't turn out as planned we'll try again. My fruit trees are growing well I hope to see harvest in a couple more years..
Salsa has been such a hit with the kids, I have none for winter. LOL
so we need more tomatoes and peppers next year.

Bee Boxes? I'm loaded with clover and honey bees, I'm thinking honey is in another prospect of the future @ the Bright side of the Barn. Except I'm not sure I'm the one cut out to be the bee keeper.

sigh, so many brighter days to come....

Grand-kids this weekend, missed these two to pieces and spent the whole time playing....

Now, I got a million things to go do.

Horse needs her feet trimmed, goats probably do too.... Eggs to gather and stalls to clean.

Blessed by God,

Life's good @ the Bright side of the Barn.
