Back to Narnia

Since the safflower is off we can now get to Narnia.  Boyd knocked down a few trees and dumped some leftover stuff while planing the field.
 So, we took a little journey to Narnia.
 It seems by the look of the trees that we aren't the only ones who venture there.
 You can see that it is thick with weeds.  These guys stand around 8 ft tall.
 Somewhere in there is a Golden Retriever.


 Our rides and the view back at the house.
 Mr. Pyro was present and active as always.

 As was Mr. Psycho.

 Yes, you will be trespassing if you enter Narnia, even if you are the owners.    Someone, we really don't know who, posted this sign one year before the bird hunting started.  It is well within our property line, so they had to trespass to hang it. :0 
Give me a call if you want a personal tour of Narnia.

Safflower Harvest


It's time to harvest the safflower and we already have a semi load full.

 It is actually very pretty all dried up.


 The little white seeds in the dirt are what we are after.




 And a view inside the semi.
 We will get docked for all the extra "stuff".
 But at least we are getting something off. Last year these fields were flooded.

BIrthday Chicken

Here is the set up for Boyd's Birthday Chicken
 It seems he gets to cook it every year for Anndee's and Justin's birthday.


 The chicken is De.Lish!
 Mazie even agreed.  She licked the grease up off the lawn.

Once in Blue Moon

 This is actually the Blue Moon in August.   
 And this is one of the pelicans that comes in on the river just about every night.
 And this is Boyd being the ever helpful husband and hauling some stuff to the river for me.
 This would be the tomato that Jasmine carried in her mouth as she ran behind the truck all the way to the river.   Why she ran?  Why she ran with a tomato in her mouth all the way to the river when I was walking and she could have stayed with me?  No one will ever know.
 And this is the reason we were all at the river, to canoe once in a Blue Moon.
 Haylee somehow remembered that I have a canoe and decided she needed a spin on the river before summer was too far over.
 She called and scheduled a time we could go and canoe we did!
 Jasmine wasn't about to be left out.
 Even if she had to swim up river to get to us.

 We got her in the canoe without tipping over.
 And off we went.



 Buddy refuses to get in the canoe, but tracks us all up and down the river.


With any luck, it won't be the last time I take the canoe out before snow flies.
