This Poor Fox, Wednesday, July 12, 2023

I saw this fox at the Upper End the other day.  It looks rather ill, I think.  See that knot by its eye?  Who knows what it is—tick, cheatgrass seed, tumor?

There looks like something wrong by the shoulder too.  Maybe how it’s standing, but something just isn’t right with this poor creature.

I’ll never know.

It quickly turned and ran the moment it saw me.

EAR WORM!!! (Ode to Summer) — Tuesday, July 11, 2023

Summertime and the liv’n is easy (Terry would disagree)

The birds are singing and the corn is past the knee

The farm is thriv’n, and blue is the sky

Hush, little baby, please don’t cry

Each morning you rise up singing

You spread your wings and you fly

The earth is calm, nothing can hurt you

Hush little baby, time is flying by

Summertime and the liv’n is easy

Summertime and the crops are looking fine

Oh! Yes! It’s summertime —sweet baby–my doll

Hush little baby—for time is flying by!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

Corn!   I love the sunlight on the corn!

I even love the sunlight Under the corn.  The Corn is covered in shade from the trees, but still

Yep, we are hot!  We do as much as we can in the morning…stop at noon, and begin again later on.

Hot! But—no matter what!  IT IS SUMMER AND I LOVE IT!!!

HOT!!! Is the Word!

Mom says it’s hot enough she is concerned Dad, I, and TLC might melt

Although, she also says we are lucky-

We have lots of shade and it DOES cool down in the night!

Mom also says she will take Summer anytime of the year!

Dad and I

And Boo Berry—Think there are other nicer times like Spring and Fall.

From Before Sun Up to After Sun Down —- Monday, July 3, 2023

Morning Coming on

Then the sky lightens with rippling glorious light

By the time the sun is full-up the irrigation water is set, the marking is done, and a countless slew of other things.

Farming.  From before sunup to

After sundown.

Remember This from GRADE SCHOOL?!??!—Sunday, July 2, 2023


Tweet, Tweet, Little Birdy

Rock’n Robin is also an earworm

Sometimes I mix the two songs up in my head

She flies up high, and she flies down low

He rocks in the treetops all day long

Hop’pn and bopping and singing his song

Living and loving in the sun

Little Birdy Tweet, Tweet, Tweet.

Now you get to have those two songs running around in your head all day long!

Thank you—I like to share!  🙂

Rock’n Robin —Tweet, Tweet, Tweet!
