The color green
Sunday, March 26, 2023 8:57 AM
Of course, I love the color green. It does rhyme with Christine, after all, but honestly, there is another so very important reason why I hold this color near and hold near and dear to my heart.

  • The last lost hour

    I am quite certain you can imagine how we decided to celebrate the very last lost hour of our lifetimes. Yes, we were sound asleep.

  • The white pigeons

    Wednesday, March 8, 2023 10:20 AM
    The days are getting longer, and the temperatures are definitely getting warmer, though some days more so than others. The flock had really not been leaving their gazebo coop over the past winter months. They rather stayed inside, hunkering down on their perches, only occasionally venturing out to fly across the valley.

  • Love a rainy day

    Sunday, March 5, 2023 8:12 AM
    Perhaps I have always loved the rain. I remember as a young child that my little brother and I had the most wonderful buckle-up raincoats that reached down to our ankles, broad brimmed hats that tied under our chins and tall rubber boots. Even though we lived in the city, our parents would enclose us in our rainy-day attire and usher us out the front door to go for a walk.

  • Signature required

    It is not that often that we put on our finer clothes and head out to dinner. One of the many joys of country living that I have really come to appreciate is knowing that muddy vehicles and work boots are signs of a day well spent. Still, it was with happy anticipation that we lay out our nice outfits, showered off the day’s accumulated farm patina and headed out to dinner with longtime city friends.

  • A lonely dog

    Thursday, February 16, 2023 6:47 AM
    We pulled onto the main road and Greg turned to look at me. Our errands could wait. We quickly decided to bring our dog back home, pick up some of her food and see if we could coax the stray to join us on a ride back to the farm. We could put her in one of our dog runs and fill the dog house with straw to keep her warm while we decided what to do next.

  • A Kentucky coffee kind of day

    Sunday, February 12, 2023 9:45 AM
    It was one of those days that I could not have imagined to be any more perfect. The sky was an almost blindly brilliantly bright blue, dotted with just a few white clouds that sailed over the valley, blown by a steady and amazingly warm southerly wind. The temperature was even in the low 70s; no jacket required. It was impossible not to smile.

  • The red engine

    Sunday, February 5, 2023 9:22 AM
    By the end of the day, we had put the engine of the 1941 McCormick Deering 04 Orchard tractor completely back together. Everything was in order. We just had to move it, all 550 pounds of it, including the hefty flywheel, all the way from Greg’s machine shop, across the mud, and over to the finished chassis in the show barn.

  • Off the grid

    Sunday, January 29, 2023 9:14 AM
    Living off-grid means that our lives are infused with a never-ending spirit of adventure as we blend old and new technologies into every single day of our being, and we are ever so thankful for each and every day, rain or shine.

  • Winter worm

    Sunday, January 22, 2023 10:28 AM
    The valley seemed to suddenly warm from the sub-zero temperatures of a few weeks ago, to what felt like a balmy tropical warmth. I gladly shed my bulky layers and happily dressed for the outdoors in my favorite flannel shirt, though I still pulled on one of my winter turtlenecks each morning.
