What’s in a name?

Okay folks, I got an email about the names for the chicks. Remember the nine chicks (all female) that remain nameless because we can’t tell them apart? Well, Aunt Julie suggested that we name them the Beardsleys from Yours, Mine, and Ours from 1968. Just in case you need to jog your memory, I managed to find a clip from the movie (just remember that movies at that time moved a little slower):
Are there any other ideas? Do let us know.

A little garden in which to walk, and immensity in which to dream

Last night, I created a little sketch of our future business for you to see. When we were in Washington, Josh and I visited Jim’s U-Fish and fell madly in love with the idea of starting something similar — only with an organic twist. Instead of just a petting zoo… why not let our guests learn how to milk a goat, churn butter, taste homemade cheese, collect eggs, and enjoy some organic fruits and vegetables?
We can’t wait to dig our pond and stock it with fish for people to catch. I am excited to have ducks and mark my words: the very moment that we have water in that pond there will be ducks! As we did our taxes this year, we realized how close we are to making our dream a reality. Even before moving here, we were working from our little home computer gathering information about zoning, pond stocking, and insurance. We made many trips to the various U-fish farms in the Tacoma/Orting/Spanaway area before leaving for Georgia (I am at the U-Fish in Orting, WA in the picture above).
Our planning and hours of labor are finally coming to fruition. Of course, we fully intend to see all of you who rated “expert” on that little test here at Razor Family Farm someday!
“To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter… to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life.” ~John Burroughs
