Changing weather and animal update

 Jessica and I started planting the garden this morning. We put in onions, Salad Bowl lettuce, spinach, Romaine lettuce and snow peas. The spinach and Romaine are sharing a row.
Meet Pork Chop, our future ham sandwich. I got him about 2 weeks ago and he lives with Brent's pig in Frenchburg. It's about 20 minutes from here.

 You would never believe these two were litter mates, but Brent's pig had a head start on the protein rich diet he feeds them. Pork Chop is catching up, but still has a bunch of growing to do. He should be ready around November or so.

Playing in the snow

 Since this is probably the last snow for the year, I wanted to get out and play in it.
 The wheeler slides very well and it is a lot of fun. Heather took the pictures for me, but didn't want a turn. She said she was too cold after feeding the bunnies and horse.
All of this will be gone by the end of the week, so let's play!
