Cross Bulls and Dogs

Another adventurous day in Kilmichael. We had no more pig adventures for the day because they were under house arrest for bad behavior. We spent most of our time in the garden rather than chasing them. The morning started out in the green garden surrounded by a thick fog. The leeks needed pick'n so Regi and I pulled them up, peeled off the dirty layers, and chopped them up for freezing. We ended up with about four gallons of chopped leeks.

In the afternoon we asked about where to go for a walk. The lady of the house told us about a cross bull down the road that would stampede us but it is an otherwise beautiful path to the river. That sounded great to me so Regi and I headed down that way. The road used to be the main road to town but the river kept washing it out so now the road just ends at the river. The road lead straight to a farmers house. There was a beautiful barn with a wall that the concrete had fallen away from the inner stones. I have to go back on a sunny day to photograph it. We saw the bull but could not figure out where the road continued. We decided to turn around and head the other way on the road. The lady of the house, Fiona, told us that there was a cross dog that way. We came to a house that had a colorful painting on its gate. It had bright flowers, green bushes, and a cross looking dog named Bono! It was so funny. Then we heard the nasty dog. It sounded like a little ankle biter so we didn't think much of it. After we got back Fiona said that if that dog gets out we have to kick it hard and run for it because it will draw blood! I guess we were luck today.

The little baby was having a hard day today. She is teething so life is hard for her. She is very cute though.

Tomorrow we are hoping for a bit of sun. If it does come out it will have to be a photo shoot day.
