Wind, Cold, Storage Places, and… Antics
This week Dave gave us a bit of an assignment. Childhood Antics. With wind storms pressing and a forecast of actual cold weather within the week, the Procrastinator General had no time to monkey around with scanning photos of when the girls were little and silly, they’re still silly but have technically left childhood. All week, while … Continue reading
Persimmon
It was my turn to choose the topic for this week’s header challenge (Dave, Fishing_Guy, Mac, and Gail’s Man). I was pretty stymied for a good theme for this week but then I just through a dart at it and came up with a colour that is really a fruit. How many colours are really fruits or food? Any who, … Continue reading
Fall Has Arrived!
It certainly has and this one is for Tom. He chose our header challenge this week (Dave, Fishing_Guy, Mac, and Gail’s Man) and as you know Dear Reader this is my all time, top of the heap, favorite season! Head and shoulders above the rest. It sits perched on the rim of the barrel while spring slimes … Continue reading
Three Hundred Sixty Six
That is how many e-mails I woke to this morning. They have caused me to try and figure a way to block all comments on this blog. Six of them were lovely, encouraging comments from real live blog friends. Four were company e-mails that I indeed signed up for (one a clothing store and three … Continue reading

It still gets procrastinated ’til the last minute (or beyond) and I still have unrealized fantasies about it being incredibly organized and caught up, and it is still hard to find things … Continue reading
Good to Be Home
The Fair is certainly exciting, fascinating and productive, but it is also exhausting. Even though we weren’t competing for extra prize money this year (we won two years in a row and had to sit this year out) and took a lot of breaks from entertaining the crowds, we couldn’t help ourselves and so now, … Continue reading
All the World is a Stage?
Well, at least our world for five days will be. Bet and I and the Bowerman gals will be down at the Puyallup Fair for its last five days. We exhibit our turkeys and quail in the Animals of the World Barn. We work hard setting up and then we work the crowd for the … Continue reading
Well Heck
I’m totally humbled. I had no thought of winning this week. I really just had an idea of a picture and a post, and knowing that I’m havin’ a hard time posting except for the header challenge change over, I just put up my favorite picture of Dirt and Anna with our changing foliage behind … Continue reading
