I hope the farmer takes all 3 ladies. I'm glad one lucky dear gets to come live with Mucca and the beef calf will enjoy a healthy (albeit) brief life at TPF. I can imagine you're both enjoying some deep cleansing breaths these days as the frantic winds down. I figured you were using the milk for the pigs and am happy to see them slurping it down. <br /><br />Love your vine covered sitting spot and nice to see all the flowers. Hope you are availing yourself to its shade and serenity. I'll be glad when things settle down there - I've been holding back on the wise-cracks far too long.

The walk around the farm was educational and we appreciate you both taking the time out of your busy schedule to show us around. By the way your hand made lavender soap is awesome!

I wish I could say I'm canning tomatoes but I'm not. I can buy them cheaper in the can when there's only me to cook for. I am saving myself for pickles & chutney in small jars instead.

Merry Melodies, was one of them. I think we got afternoon children's programs too. I can't remember watching them in the mornings though, like I do with my children now. <br /><br />Having so many cartoons to choose from on a Saturday, made the weekend feel special. Like it was made, just for kids. ;)<br /><br />Glad to hear you're getting through the hard yards, and its slowing down a bit. I love to watch my flowers too. Even the ones which aren't so showy, because there's always bee action to be had. I like your marigolds, leading up to the Grain Bin House. A lovely procession. :) Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273144680832594458.post-24044241993886732852016-08-20T18:06:45.173-07:002016-08-20T18:06:45.173-07:00From one 50+ to another, im smiling.

I also photograph flowers to remind me what beauty there is around us, and to be able to look back and see what was blooming and when.
