Farm Tour

WOW! It is already February. This means we start planning breedings, preparing for spring shows and events, Shearing in a few months, and just four more months until Cria start dropping to the ground! Okay, maybe I am getting a little ahead of myself...

Fleece
Alpacas produce one of the world's finest and most luxurious natural fibers. Alpacas are shorn, not skinned, so the fiber is clipped from the animal without causing injury...

June 2009

A day in the life of a farmer
By Karrie Myer
This picture of Nebis smelling the lilacs is to remind me that there will be warmer days ahed. In the meantime, -14 Degrees this morning. How did you start your day?

Snow Day
By Karrie Myer
A very busy day is behind us. Two feet of snow have fallen. In addition to our regular chores, we spent the day moving snow. Steve on the tractor, me behind the snow blower.

The Barn Siding continues
By Karrie Myer
Today Steve and I bundled up in the cold wind to continue putting up the siding. We spent about 6 hours out there finishing the west side of the barn. It is coming out quite beautifully. Putting that siding up is giving the barn a look of completion. While Steve nailed, I measured and cut the siding to length.

Fiber Artist?
By Karrie Myer
As mentioned in the last entry, I was going to talk about spinning. This has become one of my favorite winter pasttimes. (I say winter only because I just purchased my first spinning wheel this winter and have the time. I am not sure if summer daylight hours will promote much use of the wheel.)

Another Storm is descending upon us
By Karrie Myer
Another winter day another 2 feet of snow? Guess we all know what I am up to this evening and tomorrow. Steve and I will be moving snow! I do actually love this snow. It covers up all the snow that has been dirtied by general farm activities.
