WOW!!! We're getting rain! I can't tell you how very bad we need this rain. There are a lot of folks around the Ravena, Coxsackie area, whose wells have gone dry. I cannot perceive dealing with that problem! What would we do to cook? Obviously carry bottled water from stores. Okay, but what would we do to bath, water the animals and clean feed pans, etc.??????? It would be a mind boggling dilemma. I feel very badly for all those who have dry wells, because you just can't drill a better well in a jiffy....If it rains enough to satisfy and help replenish the water table, we'll be ok, but it would have to rain a long time for that to happen. I noticed the local reservoir was about three feet lower than it should be for this time of the year. That's a large amount, especially after the spring thaw we had from the huge snow amounts last winter. I thought we would be in super condition this summer and not have a drought, even if we didn't get a lot of rain. I was dead wrong.......We are in a serious situation right now. Let's hope it rains for a couple of days, non-stop...very steady and easy. That would be great.
Today was a "take it easy Sunday", which we seldom do. The rain and brisk pace of the last two days made that an easy thing to do. We had several farm visitors buying eggs and just talking for awhile. Dawna was here and helped this morning with watering and feeding. She cleaned the stalls and visited with Vick for awhile before leaving. It was just a calm and enjoyable day.
Friday was an enjoyable day with a stop in Bennington for cheese, Benson's Restaurant for lunch and then further north for honey and corn on the way back. Below are pictures of the restaurant, The Battenkill River, local farms, the hives where our honey comes from and others..... Enjoy
Here is our Maple Syrup and Honey.....
This is the new Cheese products we offer from Vermont.....
What a great little farm stand! This would look good beside the Pupskill Lake too......
The simple Queen Anns Lace... A weed beside the road...Nature's beauty all around us, which goes unseen by most...
The hives that bear our honey are in a lovely quiet spot atop a hilly meadow...
Benson's Restaurant in White Creek, near Eagle Bridge on 67 & 22 in Washington County...
Beautiful Little farm on the Battenkill River, just over the New York line from Vermont on route 313, just outside of Cambridge...
Looking upstream on the Battenkill River.....So crystal clear....
Looking downstream on the Battenkill River....What tranquil beauty!.....
