Tia, Your The Greatest!
Tia, my photography consultant, swung by the farm today with a catalog and current prices of the cameras that we talked about on Thursday while she was here. She takes phenomenal pics. She photoed my second oldest’s wedding in ’04 and those pictures were stunning! She is great! and if you would like to see … Continue reading
Not Many Pictures Lately
One minute you’re eating breakfast at the breakfast counter, and the next minute you’re fixing your daughter’s camera that your wife broke, well really she was just holding it and cleaning the lens when it broke itself. (Shouldn’t personal responsibility extend to inanimate objects too?) This is what the insides of a camera look like. … Continue reading
A New Trick For An Old Dog
Some folks are salesmen (or saleswomen). Some salesmen are salesmen by trade, some are salesmen by nature, some are both. (Everybody whip out your Venn diagrams.) Dirt will attest to the fact that I am not comfortable with salesmen, especially those who are both so by trade and by nature and find themselves in the … Continue reading
The Gross Gift Abuser and Freddy the Freeloader
So, dear reader are you wondering who the terribly disobedient child is or who the poorly mannered ungrateful gift receiver is? They are both myself.

I certainly, most certainly, have appreciated your input to my inquiry! I just wanted to clear that … Continue reading
Some Things on My Mind
I want to dance like the girls on the Target commercial, the two girls setting up their dorm room. I’ve thought this more than just once. I really want to dance like that. But really, I have a question for you, dear reader. Lets say, you were in the habit of giving lovely gifts to … Continue reading
What Time Is It?
It is 2:15, I am not living on the Artic Circle, consequently it is very dark right now, but in spite of that our rooster is crowing, a lot. And of course Dirt has his conspiracy-nut-job radio on. Is he listening? No but if I turn it off he’ll just turn it back on. I … Continue reading
A Draft Saved Is A Blog Earned
