Heifer Ranch Trip

I took some kids to learn about the Heifer Ranch and all the good they can do. We also want to build our own herb bed so we looked at theirs to get some ideas. The kids want to buy an animal for a family in a poor country. We also want to raise our own chickens. Here is the herb garden. The beds were made from the rocks in the area.
Can you see the red-headed bee?
One of the kids said, "I bet they don't kill that one. He has Afleck."
Now, all I could think of was Ellen and this camel kissing her daughter and you know what I didn't have any sanitizer on me.
Darcy was a champ and took it like a great adventurer that she has. I laughed out loud. Of coarse, I did it first.
If I would have seen this first, there would not be any kissing going on. The funny part: Here is the kicker. Here was all of this beauty, running water, handmade gardens and all of the kids on focused on the man-made toilets and the manure.
