Joeri visits a farm with free roaming livestock

This week the blog will be catching up with all the overdue posts. There is so much to write about - field trials, Trackfest and NATC events, which took place on June 9-12. Actually, on the way home from the NATC events in New Jersey, John and Joeri stopped off to visit his son Paul near Liberty, New York. Paul and his partner Marilyn have an “educational” farm for city folks, who come to the Catskills in summer. The farm is stocked with all kinds of free roaming livestock from horses to cattle to sheep to turkeys. Joeri took all this in stride, and did not get upset when a kid goat sniffed his backside as a dog might do. As you can see from these photos, he was keeping close watch on John for guidance in case the crazy farm menagerie turned hostile.

Beaverwood Farm is a dream come true for a photographer. This picture was taken a year and a half ago around Thanksgiving.
