Arrival of Baby Pigs

This afternoon, the girls and I went down to Pachacamac to check out the perimeter wall. After the theft of the tools in December we decided that apart from building a secure lockbox and installing an alarm system, another thing that we would do is raise the height of the wall. The wall is looking great and will be even better once we get the columns finished.

While we were there I went to check on our very pregnant pig and noticed that she could not stand up. I thought I had better call in some help so I called a local pig farmer. By the time he arrived 2 piglets had been born. After it was all said and done, 13 babies arrived and they all look good and healthy. There were 9 males and 4 females.
