Colds and Flu-It's time for homemade chicken noodle soup, eucalyptus oil in hot water and a good video. My son is sick with cold like symptoms. I just got over the fever, flu thing, (or almost over), and so did Honey. I think I saw a runny nose on one of my llamas this morning, but it's so hard to tell with them. 
Winter prep-One more goat to shear, and a ton of fiber to wash and card. The garden still needs to be put to bed before a permanent snow, and I still have firewood to stack and split for this winter's fire. Things have a way of getting done, even when the list looks endless. Winter will come and I'll be ready enough to get through it. That's the way it always works.
Bees and Honey-I went out and stole a couple of frames out of my beehive and took the honey. It is so good. I need to finish harvesting the honey. I'm not sure if I"ll continue with the bees next year, maybe. We'll see if I can get a class or two in on beekeeping in this frozen northland.
That's it from Glory Farm. Hope you're all doing well.
Blessings.

Good Morning Rhonda!
so what kind of goats do you have that you have to shear them before winter.
I had bees once it was too hard for me to deal with them by myself. Then they got some kind of bug that apparently they came with but me being a novice beekeeper didn't know about. The bee inspector had them all put down. Now I have some friends that raise bees so I get honey from them. Nice.
Winter is coming and we are about to butcher our six piggies today. A busy day ahead actually two real busy days ahead. I have faith that you will get all your prewinter chores done up Love to you and God's blessings to you too Roxanne
