How Things Work Around Here

So we get a really pretty snow fall.  I excitedly grab my camera and go set up a "photo shoot".


Not wanting to just replicate shots from last year, I set out their morning hay down by some pretty snow covered trees.


Hank brings them out of the barn where they've been laying around eating bon bons and getting completely covered in so much hay and straw that I can barely sell their wool to pay for said "photo shoot".  Don't get me started...


They see How Far they must walk to get their breakfast and head back to bed.


Buddy's hungry enough to stop and rethink.  

"We've got to walk all the way down there???"

Sigh.


And they begin their trek.


And it is So Far.

Up hill both ways...


However, sometimes, when the stars align just so and Graham gets properly distracted by sparkly snow in a nearby tree, Hank can get a little revenge.

And that's how things work around here ;-).


One part of my morning that does actually resemble real work is seeing the neighbor drive up to feed his cows. It's not like I'm stuck out in the middle of nowhere, but still, there's something nice about seeing someone else clocking in and out.
