Split Creek Farm

On the way back home from strawberry picking, we stopped by Split Creek Farm - a local goal dairy. We were greeted by Sophie the Newfoundland dog, who begged for a belly rub and then knocked Savannah over just by standing up. Gage figured out how to make rooster sounds after chasing a few around. Savannah found an egg that a chicken had just laid...on a tractor seat! She brought it to one of the farmers but he told her to keep it -- it lasted about 10 minutes in her pocket before breaking. We visited the new baby goats (2 days old and so cute), pet Caroline the piggy - who is old and blind, but happily oinks when you pet her, chased some chickens, and had a lot of fun. Lunch was a spinach & goat cheese omlette..-yummmm...
