After a month of traveling, illness and rain I finally got to walk in some really beautiful weather. The arctic blast blown down south, courtesy of Alaska, had recently arrived dropping the daytime temp to about 45 degrees but the sun was still shining AND I had my sister with me again for company. Here…
Have you ever noticed (if you are a women) that stuff seems to always break, deflate, rip and fall apart when your husband is out of town? Last January not only did our outdoor shower pipe bust and spew at a rate of speed and height to make Old Faithful jealous but the heat went…
Rain is very important. That is why I am glad we got rain on Wednesday November 5th. A LOT of rain. Matter of fact it began raining Tuesday evening around 5:00 and hasn’t stopped in 23 hours. I was going to go deer hunting today. I was going to walk for at least a couple…
Addie ran inside at 6:45 this morning “Mom ya’ gotta come see this! It is SO cool! And you need to make a blog about it!” I followed her outside and witnessed an absolutely ominous sky to the north….. I have to admit, I’m a sucker for a good storm and this one promised to…
I don’t know about you people but this summer has flown by for me and mine, I can hardly believe that fall is merely 6 weeks away and I’ve seen more cool weather this month than any October the past 30 years! Craziness, so my walk August 13th was another one blessed by pleasant weather,…
Thanks to God, Jesus, Mother Nature and Mark Scrito (our weatherman) Wednesday July 16th was gloriously cool! Upper 60’s and sunny with a slight breeze, thank merciful heavens! I didn’t even break a sweat until I was 2/3 of the way home from my 2.5 mile excursion. Here is what I saw. The railroad tracks…
Wednesday July 9th was much like Wednesday July 2nd. Hot, humid and mosquito plagued. So I waited until fairly late in the day to venture out. Here is what I saw. Apparently the chickens wanted to join me on my walk. Or they thought my camera bag contained scratch. After a brief, mad dash in…
Wednesday July 2nd was hot, humid and filled with an unholy number of mosquitos. And I had a blister. So my walk was short this week, I circled the woods behind my chicken pen. Here is what I saw. I love how this vine thing, looks like something from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.…
Wet chicks mean we got some much needed rain here in Maydelle, the silkies however don’t fare so well….. I love my silkie, wet or dry! And we are SO thankful for the much needed rain! Happy Friday everyone!
