Meet Suzi




When Suzi's caretaker unexpectedly past away, no one knew how to care for this sweet little mule. Her past had been a painful as she had gotten out of her enclosure and had been hit by a car. You will notice the large knob on her left from knee (see pic above). She is a little shy, but each day she shows a little more confidence and a little more trust. We hope she will soon find a sponsor (forms are on the website: www.lighthousefarmsanctuary.org) and/or someone to come visit with her every now and again.

Summer Babes




















It might have taken awhile to get here, but summer is here and the tree swallow chicks have something to yell about!

Clematis in bloom! Is spring is here?


Finally, it seem like we might get a spring...though it's officially summer. The veggie garden in is; most of the flower beds are in; and so are the potted plants on the deck, but the raspberries still need some attention and some other areas too!. As we had to wait for spring/summer, I guess they'll just have to be patient too!

Chevy, the Cheviot, finds new home.


Chevy was listed on Craig's List as "free for slaughter". With the physical and financial help of several people, Chevy now lives at the sanctuary. This picture was taken after his annual hair cut...shearing! He is a real sweetie...love people and my dog, Booker.

Summer Fat...

After a very wet winter and spring, I never thought I would see our horses looking like this again. Gunner, in front, Grace, behind, are all slicked up in their summer coat in the late afternoon sun. I just love the dappling in Gunner's dark bay coat.

Just another day at the beach.

A very special time like no other to date. The weather was great; the special friends were great; and time with my partner was great...what else could you ask for?
