Change in Weather

Strange after a post about the snow to be talking about 70-degree weather, but nevertheless, Ton Tenga enjoyed a change in temperature last weekend. This had to be one of the most beautiful days I can remember, and so peaceful on the farm. Pictures below may not be of interest to anyone but Larry and Cheryl (who missed the change in weather), but they give a sense of the recent lazy days at Ton Tenga. Included are pics of the new goat, who is cuter than a puppy and very energetic. —AJ

Snow!

It doesn't snow very often in our area, but last Friday (Feb. 12) we got 2 or 3 inches. It was beautiful, but it was hard to get up and down our driveway -- actually, impossible in my car, but not as hard in Larry's truck. The best situation is to already be at home when it starts snowing and stay there, but that didn't happen on Friday. I was already in town when it started, and by the time I ran my errands and picked up Caleb & Collin to spend the night, the ground was covered. The car just couldn't get up the hill, so we parked it at the barn & walked up in the snow. It didn't last long -- most of it was gone by Saturday afternoon, but Larry got some really nice pictures before it started to melt.







Caleb enjoyed eating the snow ice cream that Papa made, but Collin wouldn't even taste it because he heard me tell Larry to watch out for yellow snow!



Good to the last drop!
