Cleanliness Above All Else?

Sir Topham Hatt's motto of "usefulness before cleanliness" does not seem to apply on Gael Glen Farm in the same way that it does on the Island of Sodor.  An inordinate amount of bathing occurred on the farm today and not much else.

The boys had outdoor "baths" to wash the winter grime off their toys to get them ready for spring.  This went swimmingly until they managed to turn the hose on full blast and super soakered each other with ice cold well water.  Brrr!

The (not so) broody hens spent the day having luxurious dust baths in the wood chips from the moisture absorbing pillow case pads that I removed from the bee hives yesterday.

Liam and Seamus concluded their day with a long, hot bubble bath.
At least no one can accuse us of being stinky around here - except Granby, of course.  He still reeks.
