Summer Storm to finish the year
As much as I love a good storm, and this one was particularly spectacular, living in a rural area, I definitely prefer summer ones with plenty of rain!
Boxing Day at Eagleburra
What a year this has been. I think I probably speak for the majority of the human population at the moment when I say, thank god 2020 is nearly over. After such a rough year, I am forever grateful that we live on this beautiful farm surrounded by our beautiful …
