Having reliable car helps.
Very little art was once again done while there, mostly due to the amount of work needing to be done on the property.
At this point, I would like to take off a month and see how much could be done on the Tales of Daon. Not the snippets of poems and background outlines, but the actual 'novel', which is on the top 3 of the current "things to do in life" listing.
(Other things include:
Finishing Mr. Jellyroll poem (Don't ask).
Hybridizing my own african violet/iris/rose/etc,.
Learning to work leather
Learning to lampwork
Learning to do taxidermy -properly- (I can skin a bird as well as anyone, but stuffing the pelt afterwards and making it look good is another piece of the puzzle)
Collecting a good reference library for things natural and artistic
Work in a florist or a nursery for the sake of having that experience (Something that would have to wait until 'm not at the farm at odd times of the year) )
Meanwhile, here's some farm pictures.
The main thing I did in the past week was clear the fence line.
Here's the freed-up barbed wire and posts.
The huge pile of cleared brush, mostly multiflora rose brambles, fallen branches, and blackberry canes.
The freed-up fenceline. Should've taken a "before" picture.
Firewood, gleaned from the trunk that dad and I spent an entire Saturday hacking up and hauling. The fallen tree's been in the pasture for something like 2 years; it was either an oak or a walnut.
The greenhouse shelves that 've put together last week.
The complimentary sunset.
