Down on the Farm

We had a visitor today so we took her out to a new park we just heard about. There is actually a working farm right inside the park. It was great! Missy Monkey Feet (MMF) loved seeing the animals but was a little surprised by how noisy they really are. Some sounds were right down scary- like the very loud COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!!! less than a foot from us. Our guest had a good time reminiscing about growing up on a farm. From what we saw it looked like a lot of hard work. It also looked very rewarding. I would trade some of my amenities for the older versions but DEFINITELY NOT the dishwasher!

Here we are with some geese and their babies, MMF climbing the fence to get a better look at the horses- one of which I snapped a picture of while scratching his leg. The next few are the baby calf and piggies, laundry on the clothesline and MMF standing near it. Next, she's pumping water from the well. Our visitor is saying hello to the local mouser, and last are pictures of the back porch of the farmhouse and side yard. I would love to have an old farmhouse somewhere and dress it in antiques. You'll be seeing more pictures from this place in the future I'm sure.
