Playing with the Toys

It is nice not, to be dealing with the heat and humidity for a few days as we had a cool morning of 43F (6C) in morning, with the temperature making it up to 63F (17C) by the afternoon.















It was nice to have the family come up to the farm for the day.















Aaron was happy to have the speed on this mower opened up one level so he could go a little bit faster.















Christine was not to be outdone and she brought the barn monster out to go through the fields and the various paths throughout the sugar bush and into the forest.















She waited for Kyle to finish up what he needed to do in the workshop, before he brought out his dirt bike.















Once they were all out together Kyle challenged Aaron to a race once around the top field with the starting point between the two trailers.















As the sun got lower in the sky I went in the house to get supper ready as they would soon be in to eat, after putting their toys away.

Monster in the Barn

This morning, while I was doing barn shores I got quite a shock when I went upstairs into the mow to throw hay out for the horses.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw what seemed like the face of  a monster. It was just the way the light coming through the knot holes and spaces between the barn boards caught the headlights and grill to give it an eerie glow.

Especially since I didn't know they had put Christine's ATV in the alleyway between the hay mows.

She had it at her place for the winter, using it to keep the pathways clear of snow between the house and the garage.















Now, I know Christine's monster is in my barn for the summer and it won't cach me by surprise again.
