I took some shots of the old Barn here next to my little plot so I plan to add some pics slowly over the next few days as I get them resized and such.. check back to see updates. Til then, here's McSquizzy playing Frisbee.
Cheers for another night.

The odd 'goings on' of life on a semi-organic "Homestead" in the Midwest.
All created things are alive, conscious, and want to communicate. The Creator has endowed all creatures with wisdom and joy, and they are eager to share with us their ways of being in the world. In time we learn to recognize them as our companions.

The Little Black Lamb by Helena K. Beacham
I am the only little black lamb-
The only one, that's what I am;
All of the rest have little white faces
I guess I'm a whole family tree of disgraces.
There was no moon the night I was born in-
All the old ewes stood and looked in the morning;
Mother was worried and low hung her head,
I folded my black knees and sat on my bed
And right then and there I made up my mind
To leave wild oats alone, and maybe I'd find
That people would like me, and always look back,
Saying, "Look at that dear one, the one that is black."

An Easter Hymn
Awake, thou wintry earth-
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers laugh forth-
Your ancient gladness!
