The kids came home and then left. We've had 2 litters of pigs, 2 snow storms, 1 ice storm, and lots of other things. We have another litter due this week.
We are in the midst of Spring garden planning - some things should go in the ground VERY soon.
We have finally finished collecting wood for this winter and are working on next winter. I won't be caught so short again.
We have been working on pruning muscadine vines which have been over grown since the day we moved in here - finally getting them under control.
I hope to document more progress this spring - but who knows?
I finished a few books recently: Anthony Esolen's "Defending Boyhood", a book (can't recall the name) about hunting and fishing in SC-a personal memoir. Now reading RJ Snell's "Acedia".
Last year was sort of a homestead disaster, between my work schedule and my weekend commitments away from home on pig business. We are trying to regroup and refocus on why we are here. (We are also thinking again of getting a milk cow????)
Stay tuned.
Oremus pro invicem!
