This Little Piggy went to Court

Our piglets, doing what pigs do...


Even if you are not from northern lower Michigan, 
you may have heard about Baker's Green Acres.

Mark and his wife, Jill, have six children.

For the last year, Bakers have fought to keep their pigs from being destroyed.

Tomorrow I will be heading a tad south to a beautiful little lakeside town...to sit in COURT, 
and hear the outcome of this battle.  
The family is facing a fine of $700,000 for keeping their pigs.  

Curious?  
You should be.

Here's the story...take time to hear it.

{Note:  the video above was NOT done by Baker's Green Acres.}

Baker's Green Acres has 60+ videos, many about this case.  
Each one with new details, like this one below.
Once running, click on the title to link to the Baker's Video's on Youtube.
Please folks, take the time to view.





I'll keep you posted, dear friends.  Lord willing.

Bliss Following

My son, 
is the the finals of the Michigan Open today.


It's a long way from shooting golf balls on our 40 acres.

Congrats son.  

All those years (from pre-school age, on) 
of golfing through Michigan's four seasons has paid off.



We're all proud of you~!

Until next time, dear friends.  Lord willing.

Shoo Fly, Don't Bother Me


It's that time again.  


When we must spray the horses daily to protect them from fly bites.

Here's what we do:

Fill a spray bottle with the following...

1/3 Listerine (must have Lister, not the green mouthwash...)
1/3 Avon "Skin So Soft" original bath oil
1/3 Apple Vinegar

It works for us...and smells great.


What about you horse people?  

Does anyone use this too?  Or do you have another idea?

I'd love to hear it.

Until next time, dear friends.  Lord willing,

Sherry
