Lot's of Trees


This weekend we went out and bought trees. We decided to buy them now because the price will only be going up with the price of gas.

So, we bought them and put them in the ground at our house in town. But, we left them in their buckets so we could move them in the fall. If we were to put them on the farm now, there would be no one there to take care of them, so they are now on the property line between my house and my son's house.

We now have plum, two apples, two pears, pecan and a walnut tree. Besides the trees we bought grapes, raspberry, gooseberry, blueberry and kiwi plants. All doing well and all planted between the houses.

We also bought heirloom seeds. These will keep for a while, but I must put potatoes in the ground now. So, I have picked out a spot in my backyard and now we have to go and buy that tiller.

My backyard is shared with my husbands inventions. He is, now, trying to find alternative fuels to run a greenhouse. So, I believe I will be planting my potatoes under the shell of his greenhouse.

I have tomatoes growing, and several varieties of peppers. Can't wait till it is harvested and I begin to can. I love to can just can't stand the heat.

Well, we are on our way. Much, much more to do. But, it is happening.

A few months back, on my Supernatural Christian blog, I asked folks to suggest names for my Angora goat. I chose Delilah, thank you Donna, and she is pregnant. Yea!!! Not Donna, the goat is pregnant.
