Opening up the new pasture – actually it’s an old one, just with a gate – has prompted me to see the farm in a different way and from a different perspective. Our rotational grazing seems set, I think we will get through the summer without having to buy hay, even with the big pony eating heartily. She gets five hours a day on grass, that’s it.

We have October Light today, the second week of June. The weather now has a life of its own, no matter how hysterical the predictions, it always seems to be different than expected. Climate change is good for photographers, lots of big and beautiful sky.
