Ranchfest Update
4/20/08 - The Lord's Day - After Breakfast. Greetings y'all. Well, Ranchfest is up and running. Some of the folks started arriving on Thursday - in fact most of them did - which makes this the earliest starting Ranchfest ever. So we have been busy the last several days doing tours and showing people around the land and the farms. We had a very relaxing Sabbath yesterday, and we had a fun Q&A session last night, followed by a campfire down in the camping area.
On Thursday night and Friday we made goat sausage. I'll have some pictures to post later on, but basically we got together and made sausage out of the two goats we butchered last week. We did about 8 lbs. on Thursday night as a test, then we immediately smoked them and cooked them up to test the recipe. They were very nice and had a great flavor and we all enjoyed them. I think it was interesting for our guests to get to try homegrown and homemade sausage on their first night here. Then on Friday we made sausage out of the rest of the meat, which we will be eating (Lord Willing) on this next Thursday night.
Today we will be having a Passover Seder sometime in the afternoon, which will be fun and I am looking forward to that. Our work here for Ranchfest will officially start tomorrow. The wood for the project has not arrived, so we will be starting off tomorrow morning by working on some new fences. Hopefully the wood will arrive soon and we can get to work on the office project.
Well, we hope you all are praying for us.
Your servant in Christ Jesus,
Michael Bunker

Beth, in addition to our normal 18 or so who all have the week off in order to participate, we have had an additional 9 until this evening when two will be leaving. One will be returning on Thursday, so we will have between 7 and 9 guests for the duration.
