Camera House changes hands

Do you want to know how tall Sheila my beautiful big fat pig is? Molly got to have Camera House yesterday afternoon. I am almost 5’8″, and Sheila comes up past my hip. pig and woman

That tall.

Below is Boo – Feigning tiredness  to get more attention.

Watched carefully by the dis-approving masses – as you can imagine.

We thought we would let the peacocks out for a walk yesterday, which was all very well –

Until Mr Flowers flew up into the tree.

Then decided to spend the night up there – screeching about every 15 minutes.

peacock in treeThe girls are going to visit Chicago today so Federico and I will try and get him back into the Peacock Palace. We have a new girl coming today too – although a woofer she lives not too far from here so is hoping to come down for day trips which might be really convenient – the animals and I will meet her today to talk about this.

Pania did not join the peacock walk as she was busy sitting on her eggs. Interesting.

I was Kitchen Mama yesterday and the girls were Miss C. They had a great time too. And everyone got feed, water and cuddles.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Love your friend on the farm,

celi

  1. I had no idea you were so tall! You always talk about your scrawny arms and how wee you are…so I had developed a very well-developed impression that you were a petite, tiny thing. Sheila IS big! But I was expecting that. In my imagination, her proportions are mythic. I love your farm, and I love the happiness it spreads and I love all the happy help you are getting these days. Just great!

  2. The KING of the farm is reigning high overhead. Mr Flowers knows his place and is simply proclaiming to the congregated hoard that he is in charge.

  3. I think, Mr. Flowers is lost and does not know his way back – as it is with cats sometimes…
    Or to speak freely with the proverb: The higher you fly, the deeper you fall – he’s afraid, isn’t he?
    What a beautiful day at the Farmy.
    Enjoy your Sunday!

  4. oh Lordy! Screeching every 15 minutes all night long…I bet that kept the B””””””d minks away and any other predators…would he be in any danger out there by himself?
    My goodness Sheila has grown very big ( whisper…lots of pork chops,) I love Sheila , she is a lady with character

  5. Sorry for the Sunday – there’s a special holiday today, called ‘Corpus Christi’…. That’s why I felt like Sunday.

  6. That last photo of Mr Flowers in the tree is really elegant. No chance he will fly away, is there? That would be a disaster. My goodness, I had no idea Sheila was as big as she is — she’s HUGE. You wouldn’t want to become her enemy, that’s for sure. The pictures are lovely today and a super nice treat to see you in them.
    And thank you, garybuie, for the explanation of a ‘woofer’ as I was wondering that too. I also wondered where all these wonderful workers came from, Celi, and now I know that as well; sounds like a terrific resource.
    I didn’t comment on yesterday’s entry, about where to put the angels to sit, as I was entranced by the whole thing and spent most of the day looking for mine, if I have one. If I do, then she/he has remained a mystery and not come forward. Maybe one day it will happen.

  7. Love Mr. Flowers’ grand tail. He must check out space for it ahead of time. Hope he comes down of his own accord. Love Boo jumping. Would kill for hair like yours.

  8. Lovely photos! It’s always nice to have a visual of you. The land is rich and lovely and green and your sky looks FREE OF STORMS! Which in farming world is a HUGE blessing! Although, rain is good in small doses. We are finally starting to dry some here…supposedly today is our last day of storm for a spell–temperatures are expected to knock us flat..in the 90’s, we have been in the 60 and low 70s for months now. The heat will be a huge curse and a blessing all wrapped into one.

  9. You should enrol people into your levitation training courses!
