See that dark speck in the distance? It’s Brandon zooming back to get a cow I’d missed somehow… she came barreling out of the trees and, luckily, he noticed her. I never saw her! Daniel catches up to us after making an extra big loop looking for cows. I’m so very grateful for my ”boys”…
Still Hay
Haying in September is tricky. Cool nights often bring morning dew. 70-80 degrees feels wonderful but doesn’t dry the hay as fast. Scattered rain is showing up every few days. Raking to speed drying also knocks off the alfalfa leaves. But do we do it? You bet! Lower quality hay is still hay…
#TBT: Ready for Babies, v.2.0
My how time flies! This was first posted September 26, 2011. I had gone to see Quinlan for the first time, gone to a dog clinic, and then went to help Victoria prepare for her twin boys! Home! Home. If I was more like my dogs, I’d be running in circles and yipping! “We’re home!”…

But if I’m driving, I prefer two lane highways to Interstates….

After two years of missing this event, a friend and I attended today! Full of vendors and people… and crafts and upcycles and jewelry and clothing and handcrafts and lots of creative people. Enjoy! It was so fun. Thank you, L., my friend, for coming on another adventure with me.
#TBT: ”Eggs and Tomatoes”, v.2.0
This was first posted September 16, 2011. As usual, you guys are so SWEET! Thanks for all the well wishes for little Quinlan! I know Brandon reads this… well, he did before his activity level got boosted up another foot… so, I’m sure these are all getting read and passed along. Thank you SO MUCH….
