For Our Troops......

Welcome!

Either you're searching for some information and stumbled across here, or already know me and are interested in what I/we do. :)

The dairy cow doesn’t ask for much, but she asks every day.
People who are creating wealth with a cow either are hardworking and reliable or get that way in a hurry. This is the way it has been for a very long time.
--Joann Grohman (Author of Keeping a Family Cow)


There are three kinds of people in this world:
Those who watch things happen,
Those who Make things happen,
or you can wonder what the hell happened.
--Captain Phil Harris (RIP)


A few of words of wisdom I have come across:


Choose not to just live within your means, but live within your needs.


If you don't want to be responsible for or defend yourself, please don't expect others to do it for you.

(My translation: Buck up and learn some skills!)


Prepare for the worst, hope for the best!

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the AmericanGovernment take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian."--Henry Ford

**~*~**Spread the word!**~*~**

Small Family Farms need our help when ludicrous charges have come up against them. Maybe someday it could be one of us on this "make an example out of you" chopping block.

Pushing back (via donations, interviews, getting the word out, etc) and standing up for what we believe in will send a clear message that we refuse to just roll over and give up!

When we know what we're fighting for, we fight harder--Sgt . Gary Stein (USMC)

THANK YOU!!!

Photos around the place


Lets see, we have Comfrey, then the Citrus plant JerseyMike, Jenn (and others) helped me save this late fall. (The other one croaked, I think it got too cold.) It's outside and happily blooming. The blooms have some color to them, they were just plain white when it bloomed inside this winter. I *think* its a Key Lime....yikes. I'm gettin' old!! :(

Then we have wild Roses (came from my Sister in WA state--but we have the same ones here in the Midwest), my Red Raspberries blooming (saved from my mom's farm a couple of years ago).





Then a storm cloud east of here this weekend, and finally, Creamline photos from Anna's milk. :) (I made sour cream yesterday....woo hoo!)

    Don't you just love this time of the year? Everything is so new, fresh, and green. It's my favorite time to just sit outside on the front patio an watch the neighorhood life which is encludes plants, birds, and people.

    Have a great day around the two cow or is it three cow company.
