The Twins at Twin Bay Farm



Follow the drive for a visit to Twin Bay Farm




Come on in and sit a spell!







My girls are twins and own a farm in Georgetown, Kentucky by the name of Twin Bay Farm. Thus, the twin in Twin Bay. They have owned this place a little over a year now and it is a beautiful place for them, their dogs, and horses. During the past year, they had a new board fence built and added onto the barn, bought a new John Deere lawnmower, a horse trailer, a truck to pull it with and spend their time living the life they always wanted in the country.

This year they plan to grow a garden and Mom will help them with what to plant, where, and how much!





Leigh on Dually

Leigh works in Lexington at the Horse Magazine and Anne works in Midway for Conley Livestock. They are great girls, have many lovely friends, and like to entertain at their place in the summer months.


Anne with Drifter

They have three horses, Rebo, Dually, and Drifter. The two dogs are Dodge and Spur.



Rebo, The Old Man



(He looks pretty good for 21 years of age)


Dodge, belongs to Anne and is one smart doggie. The newest of the crew is Spur who was adopted by Leigh several months ago. Spur is still pretty young but is learning real fast about life at Twin Bay Farm and what is expected of him. Anne's baby, Dodgie



The girls are always hauling hay for the animals, bringing them in to spend the night in a warm stall if the weather is bad or letting them out to enjoy a great day in the sun.


In the spring of the year, they spend their time mowing the place because the grass grows so fast and there is so much to mow!





Anne on the John Deere



They just returned from vacationing for a week in Colorado with Colleen, one of their best friends and the previous owner of Rebo. The girls are planning on loading up the horses in the trailer and doing some barrel racing this summer.

Anne and Leigh was raised on the farm and their dad and I had quarter horses, raised a garden, owned a truck and trailer, killed our own meat, raised and grazed cattle, and loved the country life. Their paternal grandparents also lived on the farm. Their grandmother was a southern lady that cooked wonderful southern meals and taught me a lot about cooking. The girls also like to cook and are pretty good at preparing some great southern dishes and let's not forget sweet tea, the drink of all southern girls!
