Tree Knocking Sasquatches!

I heard tree knocking coming from the SW end of the farm when I arrived this morning. Sasquatch will do this for territorial purposes and also to warn others of danger. This one happened to be more of a territorial nature because we have one big bull sasquatch in particular who thinks he owns that whole corner of the farm.

Five of our staff members just left to go milk the female sasquatches today. This is usually an all day affair, because it can be difficult to track some of them down. Most of the females, however, are quite compliant with the task, and when they hear the truck coming, they'll make their way to the edge of the lake in the south central part of the farm, which is the normal location for the milking process.

The sun has finally decided to show itself today (at least for awhile), and the rain has cleared away. We were able to get our first hay wagon ride on its tour of the farm today. Each tour is an hour and a half long, and the normal schedule for those is 8:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m., plus in the summer months, we add another tour at 4:00 p.m.
Unfortunately, we had to cancel all of the tours yesterday due to the rain.

We have a school bus coming in tomorrow with about forty 1st graders, so our goal today is to get everything ready for that, which means putting breakables in our gift shop up on higher shelves.

Rumor has it they may start filming our promotional video today. I've got to practice my lines and look good for this!

Until next time...
