This is my new friend, Smooch. He is a pretty pooch. He is still just a puppy at 68lbs and a year old. He is a cow dog, an American Cow dog. Some call him an American Bull dog, but I think he's more of a cow dog. Posted by Picasa

Ramblings of a tired farmer? Or Master Gardener gone mad? I have had pleanty of winter now, as everyone else will agree with. There are other things I could do with my time if it would just warm up a bit. I am glad I am not in the bitter north winds of the US. I sympathize with those who are not just cold but ever-livid frozen. The snows of the Great Lakes are falling in great amounts, deep snow. Tunneling out is hard to think about, much less to do. I would like to have a hint of spring. One of those days that remind you its not the arctic we live in. Winds and Rains, Earthquakes and Tital waves, Tsunamis crashing and washing away, Tornados Herricanes Cyclones. Snow with ice. Continues. What is in store? Makes you wonder if the old song "Oh Suzanna" is more truth than fiction. I've come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee I'm goin' to Louisiana my true love for to see It rained all night the day I left the weather it was so dry The sun so hot I froze to death ...

Just in time

Here now I have got it in writing that I will have the other 2 acres and I have bought 23 large round bales of Alfalfa hay. I am feeding my horses Pureena "Charge" with a 12% sweet feed, wheat bran, corn and soybean oil. I will see what happens in the next 60 days. I will be working on my shelter and hope to get a goat and chicken shed up soon. I don't want a lot, just a few! I want to be able to make Biosa MicroFarm work. Organic includes Compost. I have all 4 of my dogs Licenced, tagged and registered with the city and NAIS. I cut back from 5 horses to 3, if gas goes up again, I may need them for transpertation. I would like to get my 4 goats back, that was my largest investment. I'd like to have about 6 Light Brown Leghorns and 6 Dark Brown Leghorns, show stock. A buck meat rabbit and 2 does for rabbit meat. That would make good compost for the garden next spring. Be certified as Sustainably Organic. I could be self sufficient and not need alot of money. Hey,...

I have returned in 2010

Feeling somber. To write agian seems long lost.  I can't seem to allow myself that freedom. I am here. I am doing fairly well. I have my needs met and some wants covered.  That is all of great value to me.  My spiritual hunger is well fortified and I do not thirst, for I drink from the living waters.  I still am not over this dreaded cold or actually a cleans of my body.  I look forward to the spring and warming air that comes too. I pray that the spring will linger long into the summer and when summer is here, it lingers to a slow fall to winter.  Ah, there will be a time where the seasons won't be so harsh.  The global turbulence will falter away and all will be peaceable.  When the world will be at peace. Until then I ask my heavenly Father, Jehovah, to help me gain endurance of the times we are in.  To endure the young people who see no future and the older ones who still demand the old standard or else....... else what?  I c...
