Welcome to our home

I have collected so many beautiful photos of our place that I want to keep them all in one place.

Feel free to browse around the farm in all weathers and times of day.

Some miscellaneous 2011 stuff

 


Sauteed tomatoes with onions, garlic and fresh basil. Too bad it's not scratch & sniff!


Resurrection Lilies

 


All weeded and mulched. The place cleans up nice!


Momma duck with babies. I "herded" them out of the yarn and down towards the pond because I didn't want the dogs to get frisky with them. Very cute!


See all the little white stuff? That's HAIL! Yikes!

May 2011

Hmmmm. Not weeded >--- Weeded.


Clematis about to pop


I don't know what these are, but I love 'em.


Is this the most elegant iris or what?


RED peony


More.

Skitz - natural camo!


This was supposed to be a really bad snowstorm per the Farmer's Almanac. oops!


What an outstanding morning sky that was. I couldn't get the sun and the moon in the same pic.


A teeny sliver of smokey moon in the morning sky.

Our Stuck Tractor

I just want to say that neither I nor Henry drove the tractor into the bog!

Nice how that rear wheel is blocked by the fence post, eh? I was thinking maybe we just pull out the fence post and back the tractor out.

quite a conundrum.

January 2010

Not sure of the date on this. Just a winter sunrise that I thought was beautiful!


Another beautiful winter sunrise.

Futile attempt to clear the ring of LOTS of snow!


This isn't really a winter photo - but you can use it to warm up from the winter pics!

The Wreck

 


So Callas apparently slides into the fence!


Fence blown to bits. Note top rail somehow survives.


Even the posts got blitzed!

Back to regularly scheduled beauty shots


Doesn't this look yummy? Wild salmon with broccoli.

This is "don't ride your horse over the lawn when it's still squishy".

Visit from a friend. Our pal Roger came in with his big rig for a visit. Wish I had gotten video of him maneuvering his truck around our somewhat limited turn radius. Whatta pro!
