Pheasants






Sorry for blurry photo. This is a picture of inside the farrowing house where my Brian has been raising pheasants.


Zach, Anna & Tjaden getting ready to do pheasant chores. See the pretty pheasant along the wall. You have to be careful because they fly at you sometimes freaking you out!!

Our Barn Quilt


Here is a picture of our corncrib on the family farm.

My husband and his brothers & sister grew up on this farm.

The corncrib is visible on the north side of Highway 20, about two miles west of the Grundy Center exit.

The farm has been in the Meester family since 1920 and the corncrib has been there since 1963. The quilt pattern displayed here is called "weathervane"

and is a double-block for easier viewing from the highway.
