A New Adventure at Pineland Farms

Yesterday afternoon we explored several trails for the first time at Pineland Farms. The trails led us through the woods, across the farm fields and eventually to the dairy barns. Pineland Farms is one of our very favorite places to visit during the warmer weather months. Yesterday was our first time visiting the farm and exploring the trails when the weather was cold. We bundled up for our journey and had an amazing time together experiencing a new adventure at the farm.

We especially enjoyed exploring the trails that led us through the woods. We were very lucky to find a birds nest in the middle of one of the trails and we spotted so many deer tracks.


Here is one of the fields that we crossed that eventually led us to the dairy barns. Notice that we do not have a flake of snow on the ground! We are, however, expecting some snow tomorrow -- just in time for the first day of winter. Hopefully next time we visit the trails at Pineland we will be pulling Grace, Jack and baby Eve on sleds through snow covered fields!

Grace and Jack were SO excited to see their cow friends again! It was good to be back there.

How I L*O*V*E these photos! I think that the picture of Grace and Jack wrapped in that red blanket should be on a Christmas card [minus the snow, that is!].

Did you bring that abandoned nest home to set in your Christmas tree? And, what about the deer tracks - I have a book about identifying animal tracks in the winter that I will bring up to you.

I know many Vermont farmers that would enjoy Jack and Grace helping out in the cow barn!

And, those two last pictures of Grace and Jack are waaaay toooo precious to even talk about!!

Wishing for a white Christmas for you up in Maine.
Love, Maddy

ps- just ~ maybe, Eve will arrive on Christmas 'Eve' !!

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
