When we get better at how to work this blogosphere, we will divide our posts into areas of interest, such as the Garden Journal (a photo of which I am proudly displaying with this post, hopefully); Livestock Journal; Nature Journal; Culinary Journal (which tends to be a cross-over of all the proceeding…); Construction Journal, and I am sure there will be additions to these as we go along. This is a way of sharing knowledge and the SHEER JOY that goes into making and caring. Last year, the garden spot you see above was a grassy field. This year, it is growing onions and beets and turnips and potatoes and lettuce and tomatoes and, and, and…you get the idea. Oh, those vibrant plants in the foreground are rhubarb. We hope to make wine with them some day. But that is a story for the Construction Journal! Duty, and laundry, calls.
