Speaking of which, things are happening at the new dairy site! This week the contractors completed digging all of the foundations and started concreting the new pit and commencing with the brick work. It may not look like much to you, but this is where the magic happens in the dairy, so it's a big milestone for us!
Despite the serious lack of any form of precipitation whatsoever, the grass is growing. The new pivots are running day and night, and Frankie is loving the lushness! Now our job is to try to keep it looking like this!
Karkloof Farm house has had a fresh coat of paint and is looking quite resplendant in green! The stables are also getting a new roof, just in time for Winter! There are lots of friends visiting us in June, so everything will look so preeeeety when they get here! *Happy heart*
On their travels to Afrika Burn this year, the ballies and their mates found this gem somewhere along the East coast close to Knysna! Of course, being slightly unhinged, the mates just had to end up buying it, and now it is the local mascot for the village Fuel&Gas shop!HOW AWESOME!
This gorgeous piece of equipment visited yesterday, and rumbled back up the drive in all its V8 glory....*sigh*, I want one!
Finally, I got this shot on Wednesday evening after locking up the farm gates for the night.
Autumn is my favourite season for this particular reason - gorgeous, warm days with the hint of distant fires on the breeze and a promise of a stunning sunset in the evening.
Too much of beautifulness...
Have a great weekend peeps xxxx
