Spring Rains and New Babies

Apr29

April and May are certainly entertaining in Colorado. While Kansas and Oklahoma are getting pummeled with hail and tornados we have snow! April 29th and a foot of snow! Fortunately it is relatively warm out and a lot of it is melting on contact. Ya Ya I’ve heard it a million times – we need the moisture. Bah humbug. I have a water tank to plumb to the greenhouse, a chicken tractor to build, chickens and pigs to care for, and a garden to get ready to plant. I will be complaining in August of the heat so I guess I should just chill and let nature take her course.

I Knew It. I Just Knew It.

To quote Neil Young, “What will people do? After the garden is gone.” I grieve every day. The world is in hospice. When do we get to justify a violent reaction to unrestrained patriarchy and greed as self-defense and justice? What about my son? What about your grandchildren? Has breeding now become an immoral act? I feel sorrow for every pregnant woman I see today. The people who did this have names and addresses. I think they should be paid a visit.
