I had been working on converting an open porch into an enclosed boot/mud room and finally completed the insulation below the decking today. Tis is the last stage of the project so I was very pleased to be able to tick off another project from the list of chores to be done around the farm.

The alpacas are doing well browsing around the short winter grass and dipping into the hay whenever they get the inclination.

Our Valentines day promotion is attracting plenty of traffic but no takers so far....we really need a nice piece of editorial in an up market magazine or maybe one of those concierge services that wealthy people turn to when they don't have the time to book holidays or buy gifts themselves.
