Farm

One of the pregnant sheep gave birth last week. She gave birth to two lambs. When I first saw them I couldn't believe my eyes. They were barely 12 hours old and one of them was already standing up and walking around. Their legs were so skinny and they were so independent. It's incredible how helpless humans are especially at a very young age. Unfortunately, Wednesday, the runt of the two lambs passed away. However he was walking and eating and he was well off. There are more lambs sure to come and goats as well.

Hay Deliveries:

While I’ve been volunteering at the farm, we’ve done many large hay deliveries, some as many as 60 bails of hay. It’s a lot of exhausting work because we have to throw bails of hay over our head into people’s barn. The worst part is when the bails break over your head when you are trying to throw them and all the hay showers down over you. It goes down your shirt, it finds its way into your pockets, and it gets stuck in your hair, and even though all the hay is gone, you are itchy for the rest of the day.
