Still in Montana

I haven't updated here since I got here but I've been chronicling our trip on our other blog. I would have cross-posted several posts if I knew how to do that in a quick manner. So far though, we had a number of interesting experiences, including finding some grass-fed beef from a heritage breed and using Nikki's dad's smoker to make some beef brisket.

Being in Montana makes me even more motivated to get out of the city and onto a farm somewhere.

Back

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted. I should have at least cross-posted my post on our trip to Middleburg, which included several pork delicacies.

Not much is new. We have been getting a lot of rain and it's been wonderfully timed. Just when I think I need to water the hops, it rains again. The vines are about three feet long now. I'll get a picture up soon.

In other news, we are headed to Montana for a few weeks next month. Nikki and I have considered a variety of ag-related tie-ins to this trip, including buying another quarter of beef from Land of Grass. I don't think we'll do that but we'll find something fun to bring back.

In the meantime, enjoy a video on the hunt for razor clams:
