Trip home to the family farm..

Unread post by physasst »

Well, haven't been home to the farm in several years. Fate has sorta conspired against me, and while my daughter has certainly seen my mom and dad several times, she has not been to the farm....until this last weekend. So, climb aboard, and come on a pictoral journey to one my homes as a child....and see the family horse and llama farm. Also had a house in town, but that's a different story, and that house has long ago been sold.

My daughter was in seventh heaven, and was tired, that she slept most of the car ride back to Minnesota.

Lotsa fun had by all.

A very fun series! I think I liked that last photo the most. I wouldn't be ashamed to select just the woods outside the door and play with the levels for a subtle improvement in range and saturation though.

Wonderful cat and barn shot. You could charge photographers for visits to your folks' farm! It's almost enough to make me want to take up farming, when you see it on a glorious day like that.

Yep I like em all too, especially the nifty llamas (and the horses of course), I'm not totally certain what llamas are useful for exactly, besides carrying heavy packs over mountain passes, :) but they are interesting, and that is due in large part to the photos, of course.
You'll have to excuse me, it being sort-of llama impoverished where I live,
the cat shot is great....mayhap there is the odd meece, in yon barn.

I've been trying to guess where that is......hmmm...thinking, thinking.....the pressure, the pressure...........my guessss izzzzzz........Montana.....
but I'm probably miles wrong....having never been to the US. :)

How could you leave behind such a place and live in a city. :cry:
