The Best Honey
Literally, the best honey I have ever had.
Give Tom or Hellen Jones a call.

A breath of fresh air …
Don’t know if you folks remember the national news back when the Democrats were getting together for the national convention (DNC) in Denver? There was some flaq over how the Democrats were promoting ‘green credits’ and one of the examples they were promoting was a wind turbine that didn’t ever work? Supposedly the turbine was fixed by the actual DNC convention time.
Well, this is that turbine, getting fixed. Not again, for it has never produced its intended amount of electricity. Come to find out, the generator that hooks directly to those huge propeler wings was the wrong one. They kept on trying nickel and dime repairs until all hope ran out and finally deemed just to replace it with the right generator.
This ‘repair’ has been going on for over a year!
(btw, the picture on the news link above is mine too)

Winter Wheat Harvest
The ‘09 winter wheat harvest is about half way done, according to some of Alan Welp’s crew. With the better then normal moisture through out the year, and during the harvest itself, yields have been good so far. Hopefully the local area farmers will be able to get all their wheat in before the weather turns violent which has happened north and west of Eckley where several fields have been stripped by hail and wind.

Let the Harvest begin …
We have had an exceptional Spring for Winter Wheat if the weather will cooperate now to let the farmers into the fields before hail starts to rain dwn.

A Little Bull
A gentle giant. Or so he seemed as he sauntered up out of the pasture towards me as I stood snapping his picture. As he got closer, one could tell that though he was walking from the left, he was shoulder-ing right so htat he could keep his one open eye towards the funny looking dude with the camera. He came in close enough that as I stretched my hand over the fence, we touched. That is when I could tell that even suffering through inflections, he was in fact a gentle giant.

2 months, just two months until it might just happen. What happen? The Presidency won because of a vice president elect nominee. Sarah Palin has created such a buzz in the political realm that it seems that she starts off the news broadcast on every station since her selection by republican national presidential nominee select John McCain. A personal observation is that Palin is attractive as an electable nominee simply by what the political and media machines are accusing her of, that being that she lacks political experience. One such attack implied that she was just a simpleton like the everyday person. Being an everyday person myself, I am thinking that maybe, just maybe that might be a good thing? I guess the question is, is there enough everyday simpletons left in the US to elect a president by his/her vice-president nominee?
(please remember that I am not trying to influence your vote )
