Today is a family day. We have our annual pasty party. Multiple households get together and make hundreds to be stored for the year. It’s interesting to me how all the kids just accept these type of events as obvious happenings. I giggle knowing I’ve continued a tradition that ensures I’ll have dinners in the freezers. Great Grandpa was a genius. 😂
Next month.. our annual cookie party. https://image.nostr.build/e80c7430ff354fafb396f59788894fd797d114f680cf976cfea70910fd4835dd.jpg
They have a peach something or another that my lady likes a lot as well. I’m hoping this is just some terrible attention grabbing stunt and it’ll be “reconsidered” at the last minute.
I have a bruschetta addiction. Only a small percentage of my tomatoes ever make it into jars. Hopefully the greenhouses keep us going a few more weeks.
“Perhaps the biggest disappointment in my country right now is how often folks ask "is it legal?" I don't know whether to be angry at the regulation bureaucracy, the society that clamored for that bureaucracy--oh, right, it's called oversight-- or the cowed people who think we need to ask permission to pee.
What happened to our rugged individualism? What happened to freedom, to independent agency? To civil disobedience, courage, and proceeding with what is right and noble regardless of its being blessed by the powers that be?
The thing to remember is that government regulators are not agents of "yes;" they are agents of "no." In my years of dealing
with them, the one thing that seems consistent is that "no" is the default position.”

Wife and I found each other the minute we quit looking and started living.
You can sit all day in the woods, unproductive, with all the “right” gear and then hit a deer with your truck on the way home. 🤷🏼♂️
