This weekend I shot three different bands and had a blast. Good music, good wine and camera in hand, good fun!
Of course, there was time spent with Chancie. Ohhh I love him and his sweet face and look at those eyes. I swear they pull me in every time I look into them, kiss kiss.
This weekend we were finally able to find some time to pick up some new girls to add to our flock. I had planned for four but came home with five, two Barred Rocks and three Bantams. The brooder has been waiting empty for over a month but not anymore... It's full and resonating sweet little chirping sounds that make my heart so very happy.
My Mothers Day was spent with Monkey and the Music Man in the garden planting veggies. I'm hoping our cucumbers will survive the daily squirrel attack (its a full blown war over here with them). The day also included a nice call from my bug and time floating in the pool.
Naturally my sweet brown dog was by my side most of time. He's slowing down so much now so not to many trips away from the property these days but what a happy guy. I love him tons. He went up the driveway a week ago and came back with a rawhide. He was in such a trance while chewing on it he fell asleep with it in his mouth.
We've experienced some hot weather the last two days where the temps have been 100 plus degrees. I'm not quite ready for summer and am hoping we still have some of the spring season left. Looks like a couple more days before it will cool down a bit so I'm thinking flip flops and sun screen. Yep, that should get me through..
How was your weekend?
Lovely weekend! Mine was lovely, too! Farmers' market, new laying hens, almost-trip-to-local-motocross race but it was cancelled due to some thunderstorms and lots of gardening/farming...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Hi Sheila
DeleteSo happy you had a great weekend too. Time in the garden is oh so good isn't...
great band shot! love the horsie eyes. :) and adore that brown dog of yours! makes me sad when they get old...
ReplyDeleteThanks Tex, me too I swear those big eyes get me every time. I think they show his sweet gentle soul.
DeleteI agree with you it's so hard to see any being get old, takes a little of the pain away from heart knowing he is a such a happy guy.
Have a great day!
What a wonderful weekend you had! Mine was wonderful being it was all spent with my crew. :) Didn't like the heat though. So didn't like that one bit. Today it's only in the 70's. Awesome!!!!
ReplyDeleteI know the weather is crazy... super hot one day then cold the next. Hopefully it will stabilize out and we can have some spring weather before the furnace gets stuck on the ON position.
DeleteLove the photo of the band! So cool. And I'm happy to see you have some new chicks!!! How exciting! Can't wait to see more of them :)
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy, super excited about my new babies. They will be a regular in this place :) Life is SO good.
