The Path Ahead…

1.12.25 Hello to the New Year! Well, we are nearly a fortnight into it I know, but something tells me this year is going to zoom by just as quickly as the last one did and that is a tad daunting to think about. I am sure each and every one of you, if you… Continue reading The Path Ahead…

Cheerio 2024!

12.29.24 It is snowing once again in these early hours of the morning. A wet, heavy snow that weighs down the tree branches and lays thick and soggy on the backs of the cattle, however a quick shake from them removes the accumulation and they go back to contentedly chewing their cud. For us humans,… Continue reading Cheerio 2024!

End of an Era…

12.15.24 Sometimes, when one has been so blessed by something in one’s life, when it is time to let that certain something go that has brought you so much pleasure over the years, it is hard.

I lay there for a moment listening to the sound, hearing the next wave of… Continue reading What a Diverse Week!

I was in need of having such a day as quite a few… Continue reading Seasonal Treat Time!

Pumpkins & Munchkins

10.6.24 What a fortnight it has been! Good mind you, very busy, but it does make us wonder where the time went! One minute we were entering September and the next saying cheerio to it. We had our first frost last month as well as some more scorching hot days and another fire pop up… Continue reading Pumpkins & Munchkins

Fires…

9.8.24 This has to a be a year for the record books. It seems as if wildfire season started early and still is raging on. Our own Grant County and neighbouring Wheeler County has seen more than its fair share of what has officially been termed, Mega Fires of late. The Lone Rock Fire scorched… Continue reading Fires…
