So many of you have written with names for the birds I posted on my blog yesterday. Here is what some of you had to say: Continue reading

Being tourists
This morning I had my annual physical in San Antonio, so since we were in town anyway we decided to see the first sights on my list of things to do. Continue reading
Starting the New Year out with new things
When my nephew, Nate, was young, my sister Lauryn decided to do the gift giving on New Years Eve so that the family could focus on Christ’s birth on Christmas. She figured it would be appropriate to start the New Year with new things, so the biggest family party of the year has ever since been New Years Eve with Lauryn as the hostess extraordinaire. The food was always fantastic, but the biggest event was the gift exchange, especially the white elephant exchange. Her parties were always the highlight of the year. Continue reading

This morning was our last at Falster Farm. We fed all the animals one last time and I took my last pictures of the place. We managed to get out through the pasture and get my car loaded onto the tow dolly, but not without wrecking the bumper of my car. We’ve been having a heck of a time with our vehicles lately!

It’s looking good!
Today was partly sunny with some breeze. While there is still mud on the ground, it’s not such that we are afraid of sinking in up to our hubcaps when we leave tomorrow. Thank you to all those of you who were praying for us today. So far, God has been preparing a way for us! Continue reading
A test for our chicken coop
This afternoon as Mark and I were working on the chicken coop, big black clouds were gathering in the northwestern sky. The wind began to rock the coop. We had brittle fiberglass roofing on one side and we were beginning to lay corrugated metal on the other. Then it began to rain. We finally went to our RV and from there we could see the rain coming in sideways. I felt like singing, “Oh say can you see if our roof is still there?” Continue reading
Running the farm
Nancy and Karl sold a couple cows so they left yesterday to deliver them. They left us in charge of running the farm for the last couple days. We got the animals fed and today we did some more work on the chicken coop we’re building. The Falsters returned today. It’s sure good to have them back and in charge! Continue reading
A day on the farm
This morning after a breakfast of garbanzo bean and coconut flour pancakes and home made sausage and raw milk at the house, Mark and I got the RV and car moved. We had to leave the car in the pasture with Folger (the horse). It was hard enough as it was to get the RV in behind the guest house and get it plugged in. Continue reading

Tonight we are staying in a cabin on Falster Farm (http://falsterfarm.com/). We had to leave our RV out on the road for the night. I’ll explain later. Continue reading
From Bartlesville, OK
Last night we slept with the windows open all night, and this morning we kept hearing an occasional Thwok! sound. We figured out it was a bird trying to get in our window, but we couldn’t actually see him till we sat down for breakfast. He came right up and sat on our window ledge for probably half a minute or so, having a good look at us as though we were animals in the zoo. We said hello to him and he flew into the tree next to our window. Continue reading
