Knife and Hawk Throwing

The girls learned how to throw knives and hawks at a Rendezvous they went to with their grandparents. They both enjoy practicing.

Music on the Farm

Cousin Ray plays the Indian Flute. It was hauntingly beautiful.
He taught on a reservation and in turn learned also.



Abbie plays and sings for us too.

Ray has a fabulous rustic voice!

Oxen at work

Hay Press

We had a wonderful time at Ag Progress Days, this event is put on by Penn State each year.  We always learn new things and meet interesting people.  We learned that there is no Ox breed but it is rather the training that they recieve that earns them the name Oxen.

We did not travel far on this vacation, nor spend much money but we had a wonderful time at Black Moshannon State Park...just a 15 minute drive for us, maybe a little longer pulling the camper. We love state parks, thanks PA!
