We Can Farm!!!

     So the camera is STILL not working. ANNOYING!!!! I have no idea what it's malfunction is but it makes my blog not nearly as great as it could be. We've got to get this thing working again.  I've been wanting to get some pictures of Nemo on here.  Man, you all should see how efficient she is.  She has completely cleared the area between two of our barns of any green anything.  The only thing left is the woody dead vines that are trampled at her feet. That's what I'm talking about. So, I will soon be relocating her to another area for her to "work".  As soon as I move her I'm going to go into the area she just cleaned up and cut and chip what she left.  The area I'm talking about is between our pole barn that we house equipment and tools in, and the "junk" barn that we plan on taking down.  The "junk" barn is a waste of space and we are in major need of extra real estate around here. So the plan is to pull the barn down and salvage some wood from it for projects that are still to come and reclaim the land that the barn sits on.  Maybe we'll put up a hoop house there or something.
     I'm currently re reading a book that I read last winter called "YOU CAN FARM" by Joel Salatin.  It's pretty inspiring and insightful about the profitable life farming can lead to if done correctly and without all of the million dollar combines and other specialized equipment that sucks the profitability out of farming.  I'm feeling pumped up all over again about starting this farm and doing it full time for our livelihood. I can 't wait.
