Dirt vs Grass

The horses have a pasture they can enjoy on weekend days, where they can roll and eat and buck and run and generally enjoy being out of the muddy paddock that's been their home for the last 5 months. The llama and the goats didn't have this. They do have a spot they've created to soak up the sun, but that's not the same as munching on REAL grass. Until....


....I spied how easy it would be to throw up some tape and make a nice area adjacent to the pond and their existing paddock. I put them into their new place, and they were immediately heads-down!


Meanwhile, the girls do what all kids should relish doing -- playing in the dirt! They made all sorts of lovely things, like pies and cakes and tarts and soup and all things delicious. Dried leaves, fresh grass, a gardening tool, and imagination make great ingredients for a great time.
