Though they spend most of their time in their sheltered winter quarters, if the weather is nice, The Shush Sisters still come out each day for a walk. Sheila has dressed up for her outing and put a bow tie on her tail!! 
No, it is TonTon behind her. Though Ton appears to be wearing a brown top hat so this shot just gets worse and worse. 
Both Charlotte and Sheila are growing up into very nice looking piggies. For those of you who are new, these are Hereford Pigs Charlotte has the white face and sticky uppy ears. Sheila has brown smudges on her droopy ears. Charlotte is in more shots than Sheila because Sheila is almost always walking right at my heel like a well trained dog. I need to call the swine herd and make an appointment for Charlotte with the Boar. Not a very delicate thought is it.(?) Does a rhetorical question have a question mark?
Minty is also difficult to get a shot of as she is almost always standing on the other side of me, at her own heel. 
And what have we here. (?) A chook escaping back INto the chook house. Which of you chickens was playing with a ball inside, even though we have talked about this before and who broke a window? I will have to fix that tomorrow. Two more eggs today! Joy.

Good morning everyone. Today is shopping day so The Matriarch and I will take her big jeep into town and fill it with supplies for the next few weeks. We always start at the feed store and finish at the grocery store. The list is long. Not my favourite way to spend a day as you know but it is not as cold this morning and most of the ice has melted off the roads, so it is a good idea to just get it over and done with.
Have a lovely day. And if you are in Aussie I hope you find somewhere cool for the next week or so. The temperatures there sound scorching.

It is hot and we are not in the hot zones!!
Wonderful little tour today, C…Those Shush Sisters sure have grown!
Temperatures are moderating here, too. The ice should be gone in a day or two, with any luck.
Happy (?) Shopping, and watch out for black ice!
I am crazy about your pigs and yes another heat wave….
Australia gets so hot and is designed to burn, almost all those trees need extreme heat for the seeds to germinate, though the theory makes no sense to me, burn all the bush so new bush can grow.. I need to have a chat with the designer about that idea. There are houses and people in the way now!. Hopefully it is not for too too long. try to stay cool.. silly thing to say i know.. c
I adore coming here to look at your pictures. ADORE.
Good luck shopping today. That’s our plan for tomorrow. Never fun and particularly less so in the cold. The Daily View looks especially pretty today. Very crisp. You can feel the cold through the pic.
Can’t wait to see what you’ll do with new piglets in the Spring! Tonton is a consummate actor!
Think of it as calling a dating service?
The Big Pig Dating service? c
Loving the piggies in the snow! Glorious
I agree, shopping for needs is not my cup of tea, but it has to be done
Love that chook. It looks fresh indeed over there. Keep warm, Celi and your menagerie!
Ahh, it looks like everyone is enjoying being out and about in the sunshine.
“get it over and done with” – my sediments exactly!
Loved the tour today. The sisters are huge! We are headed into “town” as well, to run errands and get some shopping done. Have a lovely day! 🙂
They ARE beautiful .
How come Sheila isn’t getting a chance at a romantic interlude with the boar? Those girls really look bonnie against the snow!
