Last Day at the Farm(s)

We went to the Monday brunch to have a visit and help clean up.  We also were treated to taking a ride on the zip-line John Holloway put up for Claire and Olivia.  I did the zip line, but didn't take photos of myself doing it. Next, we were shown the cows and trucks.  One cow was trying to birth a baby, and I did take a photo of her, but won't put it in here.  At the end of the day, after we'd showered, we met up with the folks - Uncle John, Aunt Junie, Ken, John, Barbara, Matt, Wendie, Gordon, Cindy, and Jonathan, for a nice dinner. (Thanks Ken!)  Then we said our farewells to all. A lovely time with wonderful folks!  Miss 'em already.

Olivia can go frontwards and backwards on the line

Claire is almost too tall!  Time to raise it another foot.

Uncle Jeffery takes a ride

So does Matthew.

The girls think they can ride tandem, which didn't work out too well.

Claire and Livvie make the grown-ups nervous.  The log bounced as they walked across it.

Cows!
