Summer Visitors And The Reason For Having A Farm

 



Grace and Claire came from New Mexico to visit Grandma and Grandpa for a month.  They arrived just in time to help bring the goats to the R-N-R from St. George.














The next project was to mow the new grass that would be used for picnics, morning school and camping.



















After school with Grandma, Grace and Claire headed to the creek for adventure.














The local wildlife was studied as much as possible. 








If not at school or adventuring, there was plenty of work to be done.  Grace is counting her pile of weeds she removed from the lawn.  She and Claire earned 1 penny for each weed.










After hard work we visited the local hot springs.























Lorraine and her girls came for a visit also, so we took them to the hot springs too.













But if you play you must work.  Everybody picked up rocks from the future lawn area.  As with the weeds 1 penny per rock was earned.









After the money was earned the four girls Grace, Claire, Cora and Cate jumped on their bikes and headed to the Mercantile for treats.










Ellie got out of all the work.
