Grazing


The true way to live is to enjoy every moment as it passes, and surely it is in the everyday things around us that the beauty of life lies.
 — Laura Ingalls Wilder

Bales of Hay


And the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles, no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey, a journey of one inch, very arduous and humbling and joyful, by which we arrive at the ground at our own feet, and learn to be at home.
 ― Wendell Berry

Across The Field


...the care of the earth is our most ancient and most worthy and, after all, our most pleasing responsibility. To cherish what remains of it, and to foster its renewal, is our only legitimate hope.

On The Farm


Give fools their gold, and knaves their power; let fortune's bubbles rise and fall; who sows a field, or trains a flower, or plants a tree, is more than all. 
~  John Greenleaf Whittier

A Damselfly and a "Pop it"

When I was a child, my siblings, cousins, and I would get
together at my Grandmother's farm and have
"Pop it" Wars.
Have you ever heard of a "Pop it" War?
The plant above is what we would call a "Pop it".
We would gather LOTS and LOTS of these and wrap the stems
around the bottom of the top part....and "pop" the top off and
hit each other with them. These are very small so of course
they didn't hurt...but it was TONS of FUN!

Country Life

A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor — such is my idea of happiness.
 - Leo Tolstoy
