Day Begins

"As the leaves blow in the cool fall air, I am reminded that winter will soon be here. The hay is stored in the barn, the firewood in the shed, and meat and produce preserved, I feel secure. My family sleeps as I kindle a fire in the cookstove. The kitchen warms. Fresh eggs and milk, bacon for breakfast. I am a father, husband, farmer, hunter and provider. Another day has begun." RW

Work Hard - Play Harder

I Love a Rainy Night

As you know, we are underway with our house restoration project. (See my December 1, 2010 post) In our "spare" time I slip away from the farm and office to work on the old house. But don't worry, I stop every once in a while to have some fun.



Each day I work away from home I make a funny video for the kids to show them what I did that day. This was a cold day in January when a good old Eddie Rabbitt tune came on the radio. I hope you think its a bit silly.

Farm Pics

"Julie" the littlest piglet has moved into the house and is enjoying an evening beside the woodstove. Finnigan and Fagan are wondering who is snapping so many photos. The rain is coming down hard tonight, hopefully the rain will make the grass grow tall. I love a rainy night.
