Don’t Collide, Collage!
There was a whole lot a colliding going on in the good ol’ PNW of the USA this week. I am sure there were records broken, not sure how many or what ones, but I bet you could find that out. I’m positive, without looking personally, there are a ton of youtubes of all the collidin’ at least news channel … Continue reading
Wind, Cold, Storage Places, and… Antics
This week Dave gave us a bit of an assignment. Childhood Antics. With wind storms pressing and a forecast of actual cold weather within the week, the Procrastinator General had no time to monkey around with scanning photos of when the girls were little and silly, they’re still silly but have technically left childhood. All week, while … Continue reading
How Does My Garden Grow?
Whew, boy howdy, this is not as easy an assignment as it would appear. Fishing_Guy, you must be joking, right? I’m sure that Mac, Darla, Gail’s Man, can come up with wonderful concise but all encompassing pictures and quickly decide which shot says it all, but I’m supposed to put it all in one picture? What makes … 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

Remembering, Doing, and Looking Forward, All in a Saturday’s Work

Last Sunday, the last day of February, Mr. Leonard, Leonard and Sons Excavating, came … Continue reading
North Garden, Poly Tunnels and Phenological Events
Good morning Dear Reader. Got your boots on again? I was thinking I would take you on a tour of North Garden. But instead of doing it all in one day I would stretch it out all during the week. North Garden is not the most northern spot on the Farm, north and south speaking … Continue reading
A Darn Fine Day
The girls and I saw this as we traveled to my non-appointment today. Heads up. March 18 is also on a Thursday. Look closely at month names and dates this month that is all I have to say. It was an amazingly beautiful day today. The Olympics (the mountain range out on the Olympic Peninsula … Continue reading
The Weather Outside Is Frightful
Conversation on the phone yesterday morning at five after eight, five minutes after I should have left to go “exercise” with my good friend and across-the-highway neighbor:“Hey, I’m going to be a bit late.”“How come?”“Went out to my car and there was this weird white stuff stuck to my windshield.”“Really? What is it?”“Well, I hear … Continue reading
