Bramble Creek Farm to Greenbrier Cottage: Beautiful bull calf

My earthly home

On August 3, 2009 we moved from Bramble Creek Farm to Greenbrier Cottage. San and I bought this house when Lynnea was three and Justin was just barely crawling. Returning to this humble abode was a step of faith for me. Through this blog, I hope to preserve the journey this step of faith takes me.

Bramble Creek Farm had been in my family since 1964 when my parents purchased this 11+ acres from George and Ada Kirby. San and I moved there in October 2000 when we bought it from my parents. This had been my earthly residence for over 22 years of my life, first as a child and youth and then again as a middle aged woman. I endeavored to capture some of the beauty and charm as well as the thorns and pain of this earthy home before we passed it on to others.

Beautiful bull calf

Here are pictures of Beauty and her calf. These pictures were taken January 23, one month after she gave birth to her first calf. I didn't get to attend the birth but Mary Ellen did. All went well. Beauty is a good mother.

I love this picture. Beauty is standing by her calf. The hill behind Bramble Creek Farm is directly above her. Wagner Butte is to the left. This picture was taken on the Deluca farm where Beauty now lives. The Delucas named the calf "Moostrom." Isn't he a fine looking boy calf?
