Jack right now I tend a "flock" of 63 dogs...also two horses in the barn .
today I'm actually building a new "manger" for one of the horses hay..along with receiving a 2 ton shipment of hay later this week...There is more to being a shepard than just hanging out in the fields at night watching the northern lights
so if nothing else with the two tons of hay I have coming in I'll be able to supply all the grass needed for the nativity ; of corse I don't usually donate to xian causes, but if someone needs some grass for health reasons,,,(like keeping a child warm) I do have my principles that are over and above the immoral laws of any regime.
as to gardens..even though it is warmer today than it has been recently (we just had the coldest Nov. in 18 years in FBKS) ,temps above 0 F today ,but just above (we have a chinook blowing), and with the short hours of sunlight
less than 4 hours and still rapidly getting shorter sunlight hours and lower angle everyday. (we are losing about 5 minutes of sun a day) it is NOT very conducive to gardening right now...BUT THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE!
as to tha Wookie, I see him as playing the part of John the Baptist...he even has "the look"...REPENT, REPENT, REPENT!
so what is the gift that LW will bring the babe..EXXON stock?
