Sept 16, 2014 time for a little canning. Never canned melon before.Have now.



Sept 13,2014 We took a little ride on the 4 wheeler, to interview some trees and found this little thing. Strong enough to hold a grown man, no telling what kind of cool things can be found on the rest of the 25 acres..
The leaves are starting to change. Fall is on its way.


Sept 5-7, 2014 The basement is dug! And just look at the clearing! That will be a yard someday with a house jutting up in back.


Aug 30- Sept 1, 2014

Aug 16,2014 The heavy equipment has arrived at our little homestead site. and there in the middle of the top pic is that little dogwood tree. The operator allowed that Perry had told him to stay away form it. Leave it there. How sweet. You see, my Mom always wanted a dogwood in her front yard and my brother Jerry Wayne (RIP) brought in several and never could get one to grow there. So I told Perry about that and he is making sure that little tree stays put. My heart swells just thinking about it.
Aug 9,2014 These  all were caught in under an hour! Dang they were good!


Aug 6, 2014 And the chiggers, can't ever forget the chiggers. They make a meal out of him and come back for more!




July 10 and 26 2014 Kendan's first fish and Javionte fishing. oh yes, and that dogwood tree.




July 10,2014 The finishing touches on the building, and a little visitor that landed on the side of it. Hello Luna.
The weekend before we put the metal roof on, it rained. That was fun, dodging raindrops inside. Hasn't rained while I was there much since, I'm anxious to hear the raindrops on that tin roof.




May 5,2014 We are starting to see a building taking shape..






May 4, 2014 My first time frying fish at a campsite.Tasty! That's how Penelope used to make the trip to the farm, now she just hangs out.








Easter Sunday, April 20,2014 Chem trails over Ohio county....
Anyway, this is at the time we were clearing trees by chainsaw, and burning as we went. There's a little dogwood tree rite in the middle, more on that later.


April 17-19 2014 We all need a little down time..Men and babies, who can resist?
