Loxy foxy's trip to the vet

Her ordeal with the fox hours after being born has had an impact on her neck and legs. Jem and Will took her to the vet to get checked out, she bleated most of the way! Beehhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaa!

Mulberry goodness

We went to a friends house for some mulberry picking on the weekend. Lots of happy tummies, stained fingers and lips was the result!

First day of summer at Rice cottage

The other 2 sheep both had twins last night. One almost got taken by a fox in the middle of the night, but thanks to some quick work by Jem she was able to rescue it from the foxes jaws. Then even performed some Dr Harry type vetenary skills to patch up the wound and give it a second chance!!

Super moon!

This photo doesnt nearly do justice to how huge and bright orange the moon was the other night, awesome!

Just about to enter the very fast down hill section of Majura Pines

Is it to your 'Pallet'?

When we first moved to Murrumbateman I started messing around with pallets, building steps, mtb track features, chairs and compost heaps because its free wood and pallets are so multi functional. They can be incorporated as is or broken up to make something original.

Here are some of the things I have made with pallet timber and generally pallet nails - up cycling at its best here in pallet land!
