Awesome Bunkie. I just love the photos. You don't even know how far they went to sustain my spirit when things were so rough here last fall and winter. Thank you so much for taking the time to create and share them. I really appreciate it.

Don't want to disparage your farming, but it's your pets I envy.

Can I be sent to your farm when they 'put me out to pasture'?

He needs a Texas lawnmower instead of that dinky little thing. It takes a 4 lane highway to deliver a Texas lawnmower.

I still have greenhouse envy.... I hate to get off topic here... But I have to say that your screen name conjures up visions of Jerry Springer & Maury Povich... I can just see the chairs flying & hear the bleeps bleeping... Thanks for the much needed laugh! ;D |

When I die, I'm going to be a cloud, and drift between you and St. Joe's place....occasionally stopping to drizzle at Steevs.

Steev would probably prefer urine, but hey.... drizzle is ok too.
You are all echoing my sentiments perfectly.... Utah.... Oregon... Utah... Oregon...
I'm only 20 minutes from the beach.... maybe I'll just have to stay here and dream of Utah.... Oregon... Utah... Oregon...

we're in Washington jo! ;D here's a pics of the 'new' weed the 'weed board' has decided is toxic and we have to get rid of...Bugloss...  since we are organic, not certified, and we don't want anything bad going into our water table, we don't use any pesticide crap. only thing we can think of to do is cut it down with the mower...course, the minute there's a hint of rain around, it blossoms out again... thinking of maybe crowding it out with buckwheat or some such thing... here's our one solar panel that pumps water out of our well...haven't had to use it yet this year...  here's our large gardens behind the cabin, in front of barn...  gardens in front of cabin and milkbarn...don't you love taking pics at a distance?! makes the rows all look so straight, when they aren't...  sammy exhausteed from his 'run', curls up on top of pete for a snooze...  finally, scapes...  and some strawberries...  and some radishes...  here's what we've had all spring long, and now into summer...storms comin' in...   tomatoes wondering if they're ever gonna be transplanted outside...  ducks' pen in rain...they didn't come out till it quit...check out the wind...   garden in rain...that's my perennial wheat and rye on the top left, baarley and oats below, garlic to the top right, and potatoes and corn below them...  rainwater coming off roof...  |
