| With Uncle Rich |
We drove out to Bull Valley over the weekend to spend some time with Jerry's cousin Rich and his family. I was hoping a little exposure to some farm and fowl would get them excited about our family vacation this summer. Jerry and I booked three nights at a working organic farm outside of Rockford. We're hoping to take the girls, disconnect and learn a little something about self-sufficiency...living off the land. For a mere $200 a night (in a tent) we get the opportunity to harvest, collect, rake, gather, clean, water and feed. Darn, are we be swindled. It seems that Ella will certainly pull her weight. She had no problem gathering newly laid eggs with her Aunt Leanne (fascinating process). Viv, however, was much more reluctant to join in on farm life. She preferred the safety of her father's arms or the dusty embrace of the back hoe.
