For a while I thought we weren't going to see any deer today. Then we got 5 of them, all at once! They got very active, with them attacking each other and chasing each other around, before things settled for a while. It turned out to be Mama and the twins, plus two others I … Continue reading Video Experiment

That’s going to hurt…
Well, I've taken the van in this morning to get the safety inspection. This is a bare bones inspection required in order for me to be able to transfer our license and registration to this province. Whatever else they find, as long as I can get it fixed within 30 days, they can sign off … Continue reading That’s going to hurt…
Spoiled!
I must admit, I've been very spoiled for the last decade or so. Today was one of those days of realization. Why? I went shopping for Easter. When we were living in the city, it was such a simple thing to run out to the grocery store. We'd found stores that carried things, or varieties … Continue reading Spoiled!
Pickled Pink!
Today, we started our pink pickled eggs for our Easter basket. They are now in jars, where they need to pickle for 2-3 days. We made more of them, this year; most likely we'll only use 8 for the basket itself, but extra is always good! My older daughter was a sweetheart and boiled a … Continue reading Pickled Pink!
New Deer… doing a double take!
My younger daughter and I ended up going out most of the day, getting everything we needed for Easter, and to last us until the Tuesday after. There is no way I'm doing the Costco shopping before Easter weekend. Then we went out again to get the thing I thought I had, but didn't... My … Continue reading New Deer… doing a double take!
Hello, Critters
Ah, a much more pleasant day today! Just the winds dying down makes a huge difference. There are blizzard warnings for later on, but not in our area. We're just supposed to get a mix or rain and snow some time. I'm still waiting for that last big blow-out before real spring (as opposed to … Continue reading Hello, Critters
A Good Day to Stay Inside!
It was just a bit nippy out there! 😀 I posted a video, taken from the cat food area, on my Instagram showing some of the branches blown into our yard, though a few of them were there from a previous blustery day. I took another video from the deer feeding area that I posted … Continue reading A Good Day to Stay Inside!
It’s a bit blustery out there.

Quiet – and critters
Oh, how I've learned to appreciate quiet, boring days. Not that today turned out to be either quiet, or boring - but it was close enough! The temperatures dipped a bit today, but the windchill made it feel so much colder. I was glad not to be going out, that's for sure! It was still … Continue reading Quiet – and critters
They’re Back!
As I am uploading this, they are still outside my window, though it is getting hard to see them in the increasing darkness. Look closely in the trees, behind the stone cross, and you can see Hungry Girl. One of the twins is showing antler nubs! The Re-Farmer
