Walnut Grove Farm: A new place to lay
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-new-place-to-lay.html
Welcome to my moss. Monday, April 29, 2013. A new place to lay. For all of the years we have had chickens, they have laid their eggs in an ancient laying box. Well, maybe not ancient, but really old. More than fifty years ago Daryl's family had laying hens and this was one of the boxes from way back then. But, those boxes were made for big egg production and the spaces were cramped and dark. Our chickens deserve better. So, with some help from Jonathan and Daniel,. That is my favorite part.

Walnut Grove Farm: September 2013
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Welcome to my moss. Friday, September 6, 2013. Grief - lesson one. My nephew died. He was only 19. Through the past two weeks, I have been learning the lessons of grief. Our family has been walking the paths of sorrow through the valley of the shadow of death. My nephew's mother is my sister and we are walking through the valley together, along with many other people. So, when I notice other people, I am also noticing myself. Making observations of others, making corrections in me. And all of it, the goo...

Walnut Grove Farm: June 2013
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Welcome to my moss. Sunday, June 16, 2013. Here is a little phone conversation I had yesterday:. Me: I've got a little running streak going. What kind of streak? Me: A running streak. Silence across the phone lines. Okay This may be confusing. But, I have a little running streak going. I have run for 35 days in a row! I have a friend who has a big running streak going. She has run for 386 days in a row. So, mine is just little. On that pond is a small deck. On that deck is a swing.. Links to this post.

Walnut Grove Farm: Scout
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013/04/scout.html
Welcome to my moss. Friday, April 19, 2013. Insignificant News Alert: Having a new puppy in the house is almost like having a new baby in the house. Except that when the puppy cries at night and you need some sleep, you can put a puppy in a crate in another room. And close the door. And put earplugs in your ears. And turn on a loud fan. For the first few days Scout has wanted to be right at my feet. Literally. There are a few things I have learned this week about puppy ownership. Scout has been very good...

Walnut Grove Farm: February 2013
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Welcome to my moss. Wednesday, February 13, 2013. After nearly seven inches of rain in 3 days, we have water where, usually, there is none. A pecan orchard, beautiful enough for a wedding, now has white-water rapids. We always wonder what is happening with the water levels while we sleep. Will the water be over the road when it is time to go to work? We take one vehicle "to the other side". One boat here, one boat there. Just going with the flow. Links to this post.

Walnut Grove Farm: Wild hog run
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013/05/wild-hog-run.html
Welcome to my moss. Tuesday, May 28, 2013. Picture from hoghunting.com. I went out for a jog this morning. I stopped dead in my tracks, stood still just long enough to gather my wits, turned around and ran back towards home. My total distance this morning was 2.69 miles, not as far as I had planned, but I made it back alive. And that seems like a major accomplishment for today! Next time I get out to run - tomorrow - I think I will bring some protection from the wild varmints lurking in the wheat.

Walnut Grove Farm: One of those days
http://walnutgrovefarm-cindy.blogspot.com/2013/04/one-of-those-days.html
Welcome to my moss. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. One of those days. Last Saturday was one of those perfect days. The weather was breezy and warm so we spent a lot of the day outside. Jonathan was with us. He gathered eggs and then delivered the eggs to his great-grandparents. Scout went with him.. The chickens hadn't spent any time out of their pen, but Saturday just seemed like the right day for a taste of clover. This hen is another Aracauna. See how different her coloring is? These are the good old days.
