Judy--I LOVE reading your posts! So much information and stories re all your critters you lived with, cared for, and nourished. You still have all the strength and smarts....
It shows to this day in all the farm stories you tell..
Living on a farm sure makes one strong and smart re the ways of life.
My childhood dream was to marry a farmer.....(had him all picked out--at age 6)
He was one of the boys on the Farm we spent summers at in Latvia so we could get some fresh air. We lived in the city back then...
Those boys were pretty naughty....I so enjoyed watching what they were up to...
I was a farm-girl in my heart even back then.
There was a stream there--(don't all farms have a stream somewhere)?
The water would bubble as it ran over the rocks...
Those naughty boys would tell me that was from snakes that lived in the stream.
I never dared to wade into it after hat...Ahhhhh---memories... Gita
