The Farm Visit

Saturday, we visited Hidden Villa to meet the baby animals. We saw lambs, a calf, piglets and pregnant goats (they were due to sproink that evening!). We also saw chickens, tadpoles and salamander eggs. I missed not getting to see any peeps - baby chickens are so adorable! But, we got to pet the lambs. That was pretty cool.

The day gave us an opportunity to record another Gabe-ism. The calf was far from the fence that we were able to look through. Don had to pick him up and put some effort into pointing out the calf for Gabe to figure out which hump was the calf out in the field. Later, the calf was up and about, but still far from the fence. So we pointed and exclaimed over the calf running about and asked Gabe if he could see it. "No," Gabe says, "I can't. My eyes are too short."

I'll have pictures up soon. My digital camera is now useless since a 2-penny part is no longer functioning property - the whole rest of the camera is fine! Grrrr..... So, I'm in the market. Until I get a replacement, I'm using my old film camera. Pictures come with a delay.
