Day 3

Well day 2 was a long arduous farming day, extending late into the evening.  Whoever said farmers don't have to work that hard haven't been to farm camp.  Before retiring for the night the counselor and camper went into Hannaford (pop 180) for some bar hopping.

Day 3 had a tentative start time of 7am, but the farmers didn't leave the house until 9am.  We put in a solid hour of work, cutting up trees with the new chainsaw and then burning the garbage pit, before retiring back to the house for a pot of coffee.

Once completed with official farm work, filming continued for the farm video and several exciting action sequences were captured.  (Check out some of the videos for a sneak preview). Nobody was hurt on any of the dangerous stunts performed this morning. No word yet on the official release date of the short film. The camera just loves the camp counselor, he is nailing scene after scene with minimal takes.

After lunch the camp will wrap up for 2011. As a reminder the tentative dates for 2012 farm camp are from july 12-14.  Contact Wahl farms for any inquiries.

This will be the last post live from farm camp.  It has been an experience and we have learned that farming is more than just drinking coffee and complaining about the weather.  There is quite a lot of work to be done in between all those breaks.
