Well, I can procrastinate no longer. I seem to be in a blogging rut. I am trying to get better but there is so much to do and it seems the days are shorter than the usual 24 hr. days that used to be plentiful. Lady the goat dog did not work out. See her [...]

Well, it is official, I am definitely country now. We all went up to the Fairgrounds this afternoon to enter some of my canned goods into the county fair! I have entered my Spaghetti Sauce, Blackberry Jam, Peach Jam, Pumpkin Butter and Pear Honey. I have never done anything like this before in my life [...]

Roscoe enjoyed the cool yet partially sunny Sunday as well. Roscoe is an old dog so naps are more frequent nowadays. Sometimes we really have to look and make sure that he is still breathing. Today I think he had found the perfect spot. Right in the middle of the side yard. [...]

We had two campers this weekend. Holly and Rudy are my most frequent campers and to tell the truth…my favorites. They are as different as night and day but completely adorable in their own way. We took before and after pictures this time. I guess they are really after and after pictures. The first [...]
