DAYS 101-105: More WWoofing

Can't you see how much fun I'm having!??

After our relaxing weekend, we got back to work in the gardens. Although we had completed weeding one neglected garden, Oliver had 3 more for us to do. FUN FUN FUN!

Lizzy and I started to lose our minds a little by the work and started doing our own renditions of Taylor Swift's Blank Space in Indian accents... Safe to say, we were quite sick of weeding. But not to worry! Because when the weeding was complete, we shoveled out the chicken coop and spread chicken $h!t all over them! EVEN MORE FUN!

We dug up quite a few potatoes which was unbeliveably exciting at the time. Star peeled them and put them in a shepard's pie for us for dinner which was delicious. We spent most of the week weeding and spreading poop. One day we were able to help Star clean out The Mill a bit which actually ended up being a worse job than the weeding... Beggar's can't be chooser's I guess...

On Friday we went on a long walk to an old abandoned place down the road from Oliver's. It was pretty comical as we climbed over the brick wall only to realize that Jake the Dog could not climb over. So I climbed back and shoved his fat but over the wall before we got seen trespassing on private property and we were off.

We found a ridiculously old graveyard and and beautiful road leading up to this old abandoned mansion. We walked around the mansion's gardens and tennis courts and horse stables before finally getting creeped out as it got dark and turned home.

The next day we were off to our next WWOOFing destination! Although Oliver's place had treated us well, we wanted to see a bit more of Ireland. The best way to do this was to work someplace new, so we found another farm on the west coast. We were very ready to get out of our smelly room and to stop weeding and try something different.... like chicken farming!
