Going the distance

Jake and I (and the dogs) made a trip back to Salt Lake over the weekend. We left Friday morning and made the 9 hour drive to Utah in the trusty mini-van... Geez, that's a long, boring drive...
Jake's sister Jen, her husband, and their daughter were having a going away party since they're moving up to Alaska as I type. It was nice to be back in civilization and to be able to visit with family, despite the shortness of the trip.

Ian Slackroping... he was the best, the rest of us had to use something to hang onto.

 Monday morning we drove back to the farm and by this morning we were back to work. In just a short 4 days the turkeys, guinea hens, and chickens grew like weeds (and the weeds grew like weeds as well). While we were gone the turkeys and guineas were moved from the greenhouse into their new, fancy coop, (which by the way they love!)


Happy and Eli came to work with us today as well... such hard little workers they are:
