The Farm

A well lived day on the farm. A high humidity fog filled walk kicked off the day. We then dove into some fun work projects – cutting down overgrown trees, painting an old fuel tank, mowing the lawn, feeding the horses and cleaning up stalls, weed eating, John Deere tractor time, and painting stepping stones. The life of a farmer and an acreage means there is always more work to be done. Today we also decided that every bug has made its way to South Dakota – holy cow they are everywhere and swarming. Jewel looked at me tonight and said straight faced, “how did you ever survive living here!” Ha.

It is so good to visit with Dad and Melissa and enjoy these summer days as a family. We ended the day with a special outing for a festive dinner together. Wow just wow.
