It was a full Bodhisitting day yesterday, and we headed to Down at the Farm for the day.

The farm is, literally, five minutes drive away, but I haven't actually visited since Corey was a kidlet, so was amazed at how much it has changed and grown. We got there before opening, and left nearly six hours later, and in that time along with Bodhi, and sometimes James, I fed a calf, held a chick, groomed a donkey, brushed a guinea pig, went on a tractor ride, watched lots of animals, helped Bodes on lots of play ground equipment and walked loads. So much so my legs were feeling it big time when I finally got home. The place wasn't that big either, but we did a lot of circling.

Oh, and Turlough. Dolly was sitting having a tea party with bear, dinosaur, and a blow up zebra when I arrived. She's leading quite the life now *g*



Look at this newly shorn Juppy alpaca with its spindly legs.



And look at that neck!



We were in the first feeding group of the day, so the calves were hungry. That cutie did not want to let go of the bottle.



These guys were adorable! Look at their little faces! And watching mama pig make muddy holes to wallow in had us all fascinated.











Plans for tonight are to hopefully start on the new Umbrella Academy eps. It may not happen, but that is the plan.

That sounds like a fun and very tiring day! Look at the cute animals! Little pigs have such cute faces!

I was so tired when I got home! I think I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow last night.

And yes, they do have cute faces.

Aww yay I love all these animals, especially 5at pig cuddle pile🖤🖤🖤

The piglets were adorable! We spent so much time watching them, they were just like toddlers. Either sleeping or running around while squealing.

that is TOTALLY Juppy! *g*

what a wonderful outing - lots of fresh air and great animal interactions. love the piglets, they're just so wonderful

[turps]

Such a Juppy! *g*

The piglets were adorable! Even more so when they made their piggy pile.

That sounds like a marvelous day out! What a treat for Bodhi, though I can well understand it taking a lot of energy too. The animals are all adorable!

[turps]

It was a good day, tiring though. But it was worth it to see Bodhi so excited. And I have to admit, I enjoyed myself too.

What a fabulous place!

[turps]

It was a fun day out, and perfect for younger children. And older ones who still enjoy feeding a calf and grooming a donkey at their advanced age *g*

Glad you had a good day, but 5 hours seems exhausting, yes! I hope you had a good rest afterwards.

Awww, tea party!

[turps]

We were there for a long time! I was actually surprised how long, but the day seemed to fly by.

I did have a rest, then just before we went to bed James realised he'd had a parcel delivered while we were out. The delivery guy always put them at the end of the garden if we're not in, and as James already had his leg off, I had to go get the parcel. You don't want to know how much I was complaining about those extra steps *g*

The tea party had an interesting guest list.

[turps]

The pigs in a cuddle pile were amazing!

Alpacas are so funny XD what goofy looking guys :D THE PIGS THO

[turps]

Goofy is the perfect description for alpacas. Between the teeth, mop of hair and extra long neck, they're amazing looking animals.

The pigs were adorable!

[turlough]

Your day at the farm sounds wonderful! Such cute alpacas and the piglets are just too adorable for words!

I'm happy to hear Dolly is having such an exciting life! It's not every day you have tea with a dinosaur :-)

[turps]

I enjoyed our day at the farm. The piglets were such a highlight.

I suspect Dolly has had tea parties with many different creatures, she's getting quite the education with all of them to converse with *g*

The piglets were so adorable!
