Pictures from Virginia

Hello again, finally. Trevor and I just returned from a too-brief stay at a farm in Virginia. Farmer Sandra (who grows Asian pears, artichokes, sunchokes, and asparagus just to name a few) and her animal companions were sweet enough to put us up for the weekend. Theirs is a stunning piece of property, so be prepared for lots of pictures!


An Amish buggy (there is a large Amish population in the neighborhood)


Sandra's cabin: a work in progress


Well house


Classically photogenic tractor



Sandra and Trevor walk down to the lake


Sunset at the lake


Finally making progress with the shy donkeys!


Tobacco barn... isn't this the perfect Halloween picture?! Oooooooooo...


Peeking in the window of the tobacco barn

Outdoor kitchen


"Hmm, wonder if I can get away with sneaking into the pig pen?"


"Just a little push..."


"Score!!"


A warm thank you goes out to our wonderful hosts:

Tom the Turkey...


...Puppy-Puppy...


...The rabbits...


...The Malaysian fighting cocks...


...Girlie-Girl...


...the donkeys...


...Daisy the pig...


...the chickens...


...the horse...


...and Sandra!
