Home Sweet Home

Well we have finally moved into our new home on the range. The acreage is marvelous for the horses, dogs, cats and us. We will be able to build the "Sean Path" that we have dreamed about for years.

Despite the arrival of several very hot days, our first 3 days in the new house were actually quite chilly! We opted to use the fireplace and Sean loved it. He threw his comforter on the floor and proceeded to stretch out in front of the fire. What a pleasure to hear the crackling logs and smell the heavenly aroma of burning logs!

The horses were brought over once we had completed the fencing of their first pasture. Now we are building the fence for the main pasture. It will be great to have more than one space for them. They have already gotten fat munching on the weeds in just a couple of weeks.

Mick took Sean out with him one day while working on the fence. Sean was not too taken with the adventure, but just being with his dad meant a lot to him. Sean has become very "dad-oriented". Sean pays attention to where Mick is almost all the time now.

As for the countryside, it's a joy to be out here. The sky is unending, the wildlife surrounds us and Sean has settled right in. He makes his way around the house pretty well and knows where the kitchen is: he pushes me into the kitchen when I have been too slow in providing his dinner!
