Hello again. Over a year since I posted and it has been "interesting". Money was tight and blogging was the last thing on our minds. Sorry ! Will try to do better this time around.
We had a 6.3 earthquake here in Crete, which knocked down the front veranda as we were building our (outside) bathroom. A combination of our friend Rob Fraser building the steel framework (for free!) and paying a local roofer do do the tiling meant that we had some outside shelter in the winter
Banna the horse is still going strong at 30 years of age and after much work by our farrier Les Buckle, the donkey is almost walking normally. We have 3 new lambs and are expecting more soon and the dog population is now up to six. We also take care of 5 cats. All of the dogs and cats have been neutered.
We tried keeping a goat, but it was too destructive. We swapped it for a turkey.
We are growing feed now and are just coming to the end of our winter crop. We are growing alfalfa and corn for the summer feed crop.
This is not easy.
