Signs
I finally took time to get around to a few blogs today. I don’t get out much. In real life or on the internet. But when I visited Fishing Guy over at This_Is_my_Blog I was reminded that he does a weekly header contest and so his header changes weekly, mine, changes what, annually? Man, I’m … Continue reading
That Time Has Arrived
I dunno, I could be mistakin’, but I’m thinkin’ that this is my favorite time of the year. Not time of the year as in season, as in, I like summer. I do, sort of, but I’m talking about haying time. Yeah a lot of what I love and look forward to happens in summer, … Continue reading
Is The Sun Too Late?
The girls, Dirt and I have been busting our rears to try and catch up on things. I can’t believe I had to start my corn in flats in the hot house. The hot house I thought would be essentially done using by this time. I can’t believe it is the last week of June … Continue reading
The First Hint of Deep Summer
Dirt is on vacation this week so we’ve been a bit loungy in the morning. Monday morning when I got my coffee and came back to my wonderful new room (it will be new for a long time Dear Reader), I slid my big window open so I could hear all the sounds of the … Continue reading
The Importance of the Meal: Part One
Dirt was astounded years ago when he heard of many people that were seeking to heal the wounds of September eleventh, two-thousand one, by getting together for a shared meal with neighbors and friends. New Yorkers, who before had not been much for neighborly meals, were talking strongly about how they were finding themselves looking … Continue reading
Can’t Believe It
I can’t believe how horrifically tired I am and I am sporting swollen glands. Mono? Well I doubt it, I think it is more that Dirt had a very rough week in spite of the lovely place he was working in. Because he had a rough week, I did too. After all, we are one … Continue reading
Web Page? What Web Page?
So Sunday evening Dirt and I left the farm, totin’ the stock trailer and we were off to the Peninsula and the Hood Canal, the Alderbrook Resort in Union, Washington. When we got to our room, and a wedding was going on outside our patio door so we decided to go check out the local … Continue reading
Packin’
I’m packin’ for another get away with Dirt, more of Dirt’s work conference stuff. But have no fear, my worker-bees-three are here taking care of the place. No car, no gas, no license, no place to walk to except Aunty Terry’s across the highway, so they will be here. Dirt and I won’t be as … Continue reading
Imagine That
It’s a foggy misty morning here at Victory Farm & Gardens, imagine that! It is unbelievable how much standing water we have all around the farm, in places that never have water this time of the year and a few that barely have water standing in the middle of a wet winter. Remember how this … Continue reading
Got in My Car and Ain’t it Crazy?
But I realized that someone else had dialed in the radio. It was on a country station. “Aw, what the heck. I’ll leave it on and try and imagine a sunny day haulin’ hay and listenin’ to Willie.” First song up and now my brain is on fire with thoughts. They called them crazy when … Continue reading
