Just a quick update on life here.

Not a whole lot going on, an employment change, and a few mishaps is about it. The company I worked fulltime for the past few years just shut down, so Steve Gerencser and I have decided to hang our own shingle out again. You can see the new business website at http://www.seo-shop.com.

I’m an Uncle?!?

Ok, I had the bomb of a lifetime dropped on me last night. My brother Chris called to let me know he had JUST found out he has a 19 year old son. I am still in the “WOW” stage of comprehension.

More on Thanksgiving and Chris’s visit.

My younger brother Chris came to the farm this thanksgiving season and learned he will always be a city boy at heart. He did love some of the activities we have here at times such as getting new livestock and having to catch it to load it, chasing and catching chickens while singing the Rocky… » read more

Food, Inc. The movie

Personally, I think this video should be on every agrarians blog, website, or whatever you have available. The word should be spread.

Big Ag surely is not going to tell people the truth about their products, so why not do it… » read more

New Beginnings 2009

Well, all the corn we planted this past week is sprouting quite well already, both the sweet corn and the feed corn. We should have a pretty decent harvest from all that this year. Jaimes garden is getting absolutely green, and I am sure she will be posting pictures as soon as her eye is… » read more

Brand New Baking Station & Blindness

Well, the day finally arrived that Jaime has been asking for, I got her new baking station built to her specifications, and installed in the bare area in the kitchen for her. I think it looks pretty darn good myself, however Jaime can’t really see it yet herself.
I took her in to see an… » read more

Tidbits - May 6 2009

Well, it rained all day today, so we fed all the animals needing it, then spent a good part of the day in the workshop finishing a new cabinet for the upstairs bathroom that Jaime has been wanting. Then spent the rest of the day looking about at other blogs and coming up with the… » read more

City Life vs Country Life

I grew up on the Eastern Shore of Virginia (the ESVA or the Shore to us natives), a rural area. I always said things like “I can’t wait to get away from here”, “Gosh this has to be the most boring place on Earth” growing up. I mean, you had to drive to another state… » read more

Garden of the Gods

Ok, maybe not of the gods, but close! I started planting today & only got half finished. I thought I’d breeze right through. I didn’t realize what a chore it would be, especially considering how big our garden is. We do have 9 mouths in this household, more at times, so we figured-the bigger the… » read more

Of Earth, Wind, and Fire

For the past few weeks or so, I have probably spent 15-20 hours researching methods of getting “off the grid”, and powering our own electricity needs via numerous sustainable methods. Of the various methods, there are hydro powered systems, numerous wind utilization methods, and, of course, solar collection methods. Now, while we actually do… » read more
