By leaving your email within your comment, I can find you. I realize that this is sometimes a scary thing to do with scams and all but if you disguise the email as say.....

this is the perfect way to hide from the unwanted eye. So please help me out if you are one of the non-responders.
Thank you, in advance.....Ravelly Rhonda!!

Oh My Word!


Things are happening quickly around the old farm, so much so that my head is spinning. This morning Mr. Cowboy decided that I needed to help him move some "stuff" so off we go to do just that. We start with the disc thingy.
All of a sudden he stops in the middle of road (a farm to market road but it does have fast moving traffic on it) to pick up some lumber. I hope you can see the two pieces of lumber (old planks, I might add) he placed on the disc without securing them. "Oh," he said, "they will be fine, no worries," which translates to me......WORRY!
Also note that tiny dot in the distance gaining on us quickly.
I'm chewing my nails off as we bounce along but Mr. Cowboy is as cool as a cucumber.....sigh!!
By the time I could snap this photo, the truck had passed us, nearly blowing off the doors on the tractor. This FM road has a speed limit of 60mph. I think that guy was going 80 or better. I was just happy he got around us without incident.
Other than that, all is well.  Have a great weekend everyone!!

Hay, Literally

Take a close look at the little ones.
The other day before 9" of rain pouring down, the babies (aka - calves) got a taste of hay. They were so funny to watch. They seemed to get a taste then want to spit it out but didn't know how to do that. After a time they gave up & laid down in it while their moms ate around them. Farm life's little moments are precious to me & Cowboy. Watching birds, going fishing, feeding the herd, bouncing around in the tractor; it's all pleasurable & peaceful to us.
I hope you have special or peaceful times as well.

Busy Week

Here's a snippet of what I've been doing:
Baked banana bread loaf for my mom.
Helped Mr. Cowboy count heifers & calves. Note, I'm in the back of the truck safe & sound while my fearless honey walks amongst the giant animals...laugh out loud!... Those moma cows weigh close to & some over a thousand pounds, I'm not crazy enough to get that close!!!!!
Dew on spider's web
& elusive hummingbirds. Everytime I tried to slap a photo they flew off...oohhh, it was maddening. So Ayden's class didn't get to see them but I'm not giving up yet.
Fresh strawberries to.....
8 pints of strawberry jam.....whew, that's what I've been up to. I hope everyone of you are doing well & enjoying life!

Don't count the days, make the days count!
