Two "Jons" in the garage.......


Resting after a long day of garage cleaning.......watching for the school bus........gazing at the garage door that is continuously going up and down for no apparent reason but, who cares........or trying to figure out who dressed Jonathan.......
Maybe it is just Grandpa and Grandson hangin out on a lazy kinda day.........

BRING THE HEAT..........


This field has got to be pushing a mile in length and if you look real close at the photo, on the right next to the woods, you will see the planter. Yep, Terry is puttin em in the ground, beans that is, but if we don't get some warmth they ain't gonna grow much. It is just too darn cold for anything to grow, even me, but somehow I have managed, but we need some above 50 degree nights to get things cooking and so far we haven't had it.
Today is Thursday and that means weaning day and it went as well as it could given our sows are all a little under the weather but I did see some signs of improvement as I walked amongst them (that sounds so profound, I like it, I'll have to be amongst more often, but shouldn't it be spelled amonkst..go figure) this morning at chore time. Mostly the day has been pretty smooth and lucky for us rather uneventfull (my word) but finally over. I have a date with the TV so I will take my leave of .....what ever.... and be gone...but most are home and relaxing at the end of the day and all is well on the farm once again........:)

Just Stuff..........














Well, I haven't been here in awhile, been a little under the weather, as opposed to being a little over the weather which would require being in an airplane which ain't gonna happen but speaking of airplanes Lori finally got to take her 5 year anniversary trip and FLEW to see her big brother Tony in Texas, or as she says "Tony T" sounds a little mafia like to me but maybe it is more like Mr. T, he won't fly either.....she did have a great time despite the bumpy flight and her nervous.............I'm done......

As you can see the planter is rolling and rolling rather well I might add. The last rain event didn't produce enough rain to keep it down for long and next week looks like it will cooperate as well. Terry got a little over 50 acres done Friday before the rain stopped him but it was time for a break anyway......

Got to go, I am being rattled......weekend chores are done, sun is shinning, flag is flying and all is well on the farm once again..............
