John and Julia Snethen had a busy week with John running the bus route and Julia went to Knob Noster to help Shella with a weeklong garage’s sale. Poor little Theo was sick with an ear infection and was not a happy little fellow.

Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm, not much exciting going on. Spec and Petey joined Belle again this past week to enjoy the Lazy, hazy, days of summer by watching and counting rounds the men made mowing. Belle is looking forward to the first snow. She did enjoy seeing a surprise calf. Robin is busy so, not getting much knitting done; she only hatched a few guineas. Belle is happy about that but doesn’t tell Robin.
