This weeks show is a little different. We’ve had a very long busy weekend and Misty needed a rest so I’m doing the show solo. I really wanted to do a tour of a beehive to show you what was inside but the weather this weekend was not cooperating. You normally want to work on beehives on sunny warm days. It was 75 out, but it had been raining all day so the bees would all be home and probably grumpy. So I suited up all the way and went out anyways and did a sound seeing tour as I walked though a hive. It’s not the most organized, but I think you’ll enjoy the sounds and the tour!

This weeks show is a little different. I’m down under, and Misty is busy taking care of chores at home all by herself. We recorded this show while we did the chores on or around the 15th. I put the binaural microphones to my ears, took the camera and walked around the farm taking pictures and talking about what’s going on. This podcast would really benefit from being listened to with headphones due to the way it was recorded, it will make you feel like you are there with me.

I took pictures as I went, and you can hear the camera going off every time. Just use that to know when to change picture. It also means I couldn’t remove bad pictures, so you get the good with the bad. I hope you can follow along.

This is a really special episode, Caroline takes us for a tour of her barn while she’s milking. What could be better than the sounds from a strange barn??? In this weeks show:

• Dave from Chub creek sends us the opener
• John G and his peppers and wine. Thank you John G!
• Farm Phone: How did we meet, are we telling??
• Roundup!
• Caroline: Milking, and barn tour
• Foot problems
• Knitting and spinning. Roving vs combed tops

We had a great time doing the show this week and I think it showed. The great start with Dave and the tour really made it a good time. I hope you enjoy the show as much we did putting it together. We want your questions! Farm phone: +1-206-202-GOAT, or you can email us at gfl@geekfarmlife.com, or leave a comment!
