New Year

What to look forward to in the New Year. We have four great mares bred to Chocolate Domino for spring foals. Its like Christmas all over but no peaking at these gifts. We'll just have to wait and I am sure the mares will make us wait a couple extra days too. Feels like they like to catch by surprise. Even Sam got the chance to making surprise this year too. The people with the female dog Shadow loved there puppies so much that they have come back for a repeat breeding. The Labrador Retriever puppies with great hunting lines are due St. Patrick's Day, So these puppies will have a special Irish touch to them.
We have already been working hard on the property. We have been burning the large brush pile we made all summer. The girls have been having tons of fun sliding in the meadow cooking hot dogs and marshmallows on the fire.
Girl have a pair of working steers they are getting ready for 4-H this year. If you are interest in some bull calves to start your own team. There are two bull calves at the farm we got ours a steel at $25.00 a calf. go to the website and click on "Calf" to see pictures of them.
We made so wind chimes for Christmas presents this year 12 in all and kind of showed them off to a few friends. Well we have had a request to make some they are starting at $40.00 they are also wood burned for that special touch. please check out the website www.vermontel.net/~lwheelock "wind chimes" to see pictures of the wind chimes and all the great would burning.

Have a great day.
