The Farm

Alright y'all.  Back to blogging.  Don't hold your breath but, I have goals.  So - we're off to a start on this, the first day of the month. 

We were blessed with the chance to spend some time up with Uncle Tom at the farm this summer.  And it was delightful as usual.  I'm not sure how it happened, but now going to the farm equates with "junk food weekend." And we love it.  We dine at Moore's Cafe or Maddox, have bowls of "gaming food" like M&M's and Twizzlers, and always make Granny's Frosties.  This time around I made a Pinterest find, Salted Carmel Cookies.  Yes, they too were yummo.  Sure, we leave feeling fat and sick, but in the moment, it's totally worth it!

 This particular time around, Mark's project was working on the water pipe that had broke in the shed. I laughed as I sat in the recliner and supervised while Mark relived his Pool Man days.  He does a good job!  Sad that we didn't have a onsie for him to work in.  Gramps always worked in a onsie and the boys sort of loved that.

I also ventured to a new corner of the farm and found a huge collection of cars in what appeared to be a car graveyard.  No, these didn't belong to gramps, but rather an uncle who inherited the property after Gramps died.  And now, here they sit.  All old and abandoned.  Be still my history heart.

We sure love our time at the farm and are planning on stopping by again before the snow hits.  Delightful.
