Booo how can they remove points for the hat?? It looks awesome on her :lol:!!! And I agree! I'm so happy that the water is gone! Though.... we only have rain showers that last up to 20 mins now... it's not the best for crops but it's better than it pouring and pouring for days like it was before
Hey Bruce :D
Good to be back! It's been kinda a bit rough recently and all. We finally got our first crop planted and actually harvested last week! We are working on setting up the second pastured area for the sheep which is great! But it means they need to learn how to follow me to the other...
Ok here's a big long update thanks to my long time disapearance from this site :D

So pictures of the pallets we have set up
Ramsay and toot get along pretty well. They seem to act like typical boys always butting heads and playing the who's got more testosterone game lol
