Frying Pan Farm Park

This morning we went to a large park in Fairfax County that is built out of an old farm. It is sort of a living museum of turn-of-the-century farm practices. They have cows, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, peacocks, and rabbits. Georgie loved it all. It was an especially nice time to go because a lot of the animals are starting to have their babies. There were two new calves, 5 new lambs, and 9 new piglets. More sheep and one of the goats are expecting soon. And I think another sow is past her due date. So we'll be going back for sure.

First Georgie had to put her farm outfit on.

It's been weeks since Georgie saw a goat.

Herefords always look angry to me.

Here was a very nice older calf that was with the herefords. It licked Georgie's hand, which she loved.

Milena and Georgie decided to touch each other's noses.

If you notice a certain dreamy quality to these photos, it may be because I found a small fingerprint on the lens. From the size of it, I'm guessing it belongs to an 11-month-old.
