Things have been crazy around here, selling stuff, buying stuff, putting up broilers, attending parties and so on. But Addie and I stole a few minutes to take a quick walk Here is what we saw. White clover, blooming beautifully. Plus a small child with a purple, flower weed thing. I think it is Toad…
Since I began this blog almost 2 years ago, this has been my longest break. I have barely even seen my computer these past couple of weeks. It wasn’t an intentional break, it just kinda happened. Rather than go on and on about all the pitiful reasons I’ve abandoned y’all. I’ll simply let my pictures…
Last week, in Texas and across much of the country, it rained. In like, the second flood. We didn’t suffer as much as many folks, and for that I am thankful. Our neighbor’s hay on the other hand, it got a tad bit wet. This is the creek, only it isn’t supposed to be here. …
Do you ever wonder why you blog? Or, why you read blogs? Sometimes I do. However, I keep coming back to the same answer. I blog for me. And, when I have any spare time at all. I love reading YOUR blogs! From New Zealand to Florida, Illinois to Maine, Kenya to Mississippi, Canada to Finland,…
March blew in, literally, 3 days ago. Grabbing my camera in the late afternoon, I headed for the woods. Which were quite windy. Here is what I saw.

Now, before any of y’all get your feathers in a wad. I am NOT a supporter of cock fights, dog fights, people fights or any violence in general. And, all I wanted to do tonight was watch the Academy Awards. I’ve been looking forward to it for days. Only, when I went to turn it on…
Do you ever get headaches? The kind that blind your mind and make you want to scream? I do. Not very often, thank God, only 3 or 4 a year. I had one this week. The day was beautiful and I had a ton of wonderful things planned, including a blog for you. That didn’t…
I am aware that recently I’ve bombarded your news feed and in-boxes with silly poems and walks. So, I figured I better post something at least half-way useful. If you are like me, and still have pumpkins from Halloween on your porch and a Christmas wreath on your front door, you will find this helpful. …
There is a rooster that lives next door, although for what, I’m really not sure. He has no hens, he has no chicks, he has no one to call up quick. So every day he moseys over, acting like he’s sniffing clover. But he’s not fooling anyone He wants a hen, a bit of scratch,…
School, laundry and chickens dominated the day. However, the Texas weather has been…….awesome. So we both took a break from our duties and explored the yard, field and creek. Here is what we saw. Addie took over my camera, and along with five thousand, two hundred and eighteen pictures of my car, the horse trailer and…
