Yesterday we drove over to Canyon de Chelly. I’d never been there. What a treat that was! I was amazed at the Creator’s handiwork as we drove along the south rim of the canyon. The Navajo people still live and farm at the base of the canyon, and ruins also remain there. We hiked to [...]

The roses are blooming finally. I love the color of this one. Looks like I need to treat it though. Need to dig out my gardening book! Also visited with this little bunny on my walk this morning! Never a dull day on the farm!

Cleaned the patio day before yesterday. The neighbor kitty came to help again, (I love that cat!) but didn’t stay around long when the dust started whirling. It’s been hot here and we finally hooked up our air conditioner. Nights are warmer, too, but still wonderfully cool, just not freezing weather! I do most of the [...]

Happy Father’s Day to all you Dads out there! Since it’s Father’s Day, I’ll tell a couple of stories that may be of interest to you guys as well as the gals!

Before the balewagon can [...]

Beautiful day here. It got down to 34 or so again last night, but the chilis, peppers and tomatoes survived. I decided to launch the forever procrastinated project of repotting my flowers. It was a messy job, and I had lots of help from a neighborhood cat. She’s such a sweet cat…loves to scout the neighborhood [...]

Beautiful days here, although it got down to 34 degrees night before last. My tomatoes and peppers survived, though! We have a big field to bale, probably today, and I figure I might get to bale some of it. My hubby has insisted I continue my writing so far, and has baled all of first cut himself. [...]

Summer is upon us; the nights are warm and the days pretty hot. Our days have not been lazy ones, however. All our hay is down and a couple of fields are about ready to bale, so we’ll be running around like “chickens with their heads chopped off,” as my mom used to say. When [...]
