Meanwhile, the natives will have plenty of time to show themselves.MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-88152707693713969442010-01-16T21:59:23.111-06:002010-01-16T21:59:23.111-06:00Hey Annie, you might get a lot of flowers come up ...Hey Annie, you might get a lot of flowers come up volunteer! I could not believe the number of wild hyacinths that came up down the road from me, when apco cleared one of their paths. It was really beautiful! So I would encourage you to wait before sowing, if you can stand it. :)Ruralityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06616461213179182660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-62266470092179515712010-01-16T19:49:34.996-06:002010-01-16T19:49:34.996-06:00Hey Jenn! well, that's what i said as far as m...Hey Jenn! well, that's what i said as far as my sister goes.<br />You know, I had not looked at it that way before but you're right about we don't notice stuff once it's done!

I get work done - weeding, planting, whatever- and it doesn't look like anything - BECAUSE IT LOOKS DONE. We are so trained to notice the unfinished and not see what is done. Anyway, I understand.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15597630887713954960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-80613083089891251472010-01-16T14:54:41.814-06:002010-01-16T14:54:41.814-06:00Hey Ed! yeah, I know I'll always be working an...Hey Ed! yeah, I know I'll always be working and improving on it, so it is a lifetime thing but there are some parts that must be finished quickly or they begin to deteriorate. That's what bothers me.<br /><br />Hey Jim! thanks and same answer that I gave Ed. The thing is with my sister, she does live in the country and likes it! She just likes to bitch at me. But then, she has a husband that does everything for her so she doesn't realize how some things are.MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-29514185591207449232010-01-16T11:44:31.447-06:002010-01-16T11:44:31.447-06:00I remember reading somewhere that a homesteader is...I remember reading somewhere that a homesteader is never really finished working on the home place. A life long task, but one that is truly an act of love!<br /><br />Don't worry about those that don't live the country life...they will never understand!<br /><br />Looking good to me!HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-62264124256327098702010-01-16T10:55:45.180-06:002010-01-16T10:55:45.180-06:00But you did it yourself and very few people can sa...But you did it yourself and very few people can say that. If I had some land and decide to build a house, I suspect I will be working on it a lifetime because that is what I want to do. I suspect you have some of that in you too.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-32680094952872286752010-01-16T10:31:23.477-06:002010-01-16T10:31:23.477-06:00Hey Sis! oh, my sister wouldn't make it one da...Hey Sis! oh, my sister wouldn't make it one day trying to do this kind of work. :D<br />I have almost 20 acres now. I recently acquired another acre from my next door neighbor.<br />Thanks!<br /><br />Hey Pablo! yeah, that is the power line cut; if you enlarge the photo you can see one pole way in the back in the middle but you really can't see the lines running towards where I was standing. In the back is a road that Allen cut to get back to where he was going to build a tractor shed.<br />Well, maybe I'll croak in warmer weather! or they can just pile sticks on me.MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-10063877476418764502010-01-16T07:34:33.218-06:002010-01-16T07:34:33.218-06:00So is that your power cut in the photo?
