Return of the Blog

 After an absence of what looks to be 3 years I am reviving this.  I have been writing lately, a habit I never really cared for but have found therapeutic during the past year.  Since I last used this blog, life has changed a great deal.  As Grandma took more and more of my time and attention the farming had to go bit by bit, until all of my beloved livestock was gone.  We then decided to move from upstate New York to southern Maryland 2 years ago, thus no more farm at all.  And the biggest change of all was last summer when Mom left us for the Heavenly Pastures with their Jersey cows.  I still miss her constantly.

Meanwhile, I will be adding more to this in the upcoming days that will fill you in on any other changes.
