When we first baled hay early in the summer, we could hardly find a dry day to go over the ground. We just baled again today and there is hardly enough grass to bale due to the drought. The first calf in three years that had to be bottle/bucket fed came home on the truck 3 weeks ago. He was a twin, and the mother only fed one. The twin is brown with a white face. Calving has been difficult this year. We have lost 1 cow and 4 calves. The heat is certainly hard on everything! Inside in the air conditioning, lots of jam has been made for Holly's upcoming wedding reception at the farm. Blueberries shown here add to the strawberry, rhubarb, and peach ready for October 1st. Back to school this evening for my first meeting of the year.

Hi Sue--It's been awhile since I have dropped in....It looks like you are doing well and keeping busy. I just wanted to let you know Adam is doing great. You gave him a great foundation in writing and he continued to do well in his college English courses at Maur Hill and on his ACT. He is in basic training right now (reserves). After training he is heading to the University of Hawaii where he will study Mandarin Chinese. He went on a mission trip to China this past June where he taught English in rural Hunan. They were so poor...no bathrooms. He loved it and I see him going back! I just wanted to share. We think a lot of you!
