Winter Sports Return!









This week we got, what I hope will be, lasting snow and ice thick enough to skate on!  To make sure we took full advantage we had a day of skating AND the first ski trip to Sugarloaf.  Everyone's skating and skiing was a bit rusty, but it felt exciting to be back on the ice and the mountain.

The pigs don't seem to be phased by the snow one bit.  They do plenty of running in their pen (as evidenced by the snow they pack down) and are currently enjoying the food scraps from our house and the hospital cafeteria.  They seem to love it and are growing well! It continues to be so cool to see how smart they are in interacting with us.  It will be interesting when they go to slaughter, but we will just keep telling ourselves that it will be worth it to "know our meat" and what it ate... I think;)
