Promise Acre: Our Journey

[Latestarter]

Looks like spring is finally breaking out up your way. Nice to see leaves finally growing I'll bet. We've been dealing with 90 degrees and sweat... Guess you'll have that too soon enough. Then like us, you'll be wishing that cooler weather was back. The horses look really good.

What a great Mother's Day! I love it!

@Latestarter actually more feels like we skipped Spring... but enjoying the warmer temperatures.

Got a couple of leads on 2 new properties, driving by them this morning. Both are within our "circumference" one has 16 acres though mostly wooded. the other is 19 acres and right on a lake... it's "just" a fishing lake... not sure about all the neighbors though it is off to itself. It needs a bit of work... and barn and shop burnt last year... so we'll see. Mom's getting serious about an auction.
Need to get the garden in. not going to fill the garden but do want some tomatoes, peppers, beans and corn. not much motivation on my gardening this year. but we did finish school last friday. So no excuses.

Ah, school's out for summer! You have helpers for the garden.

I need to get our garden out too. Rained last night so garden needs filled again. Just going to plant what we will use fresh. I’m afraid I won’t have time to get anything preserved. If I do, I have sources to buy from.

The right property will come up and it will call you to it. Your home is out there, keep your hopes up--it will happen!

We looked for almost 3 years before we found our place. You will get yours.

 

[Wehner Homestead]

I agree with @Baymule and @Mike CHS

Had another litter of bunnies born this morning.

Also ended up selling our 3 yr old mini gelding. He'll be spoiled rotten I am sure as an older couples pet.

Of the properties the 16 has potential other than no hay fields... the other is a swamp. Everyone is right it will happen when it's right.

Been busy with ballgames and 4H. And been working on the flower beds. Should have rode the horses but just never felt like we had time or energy..too rainy or too hot.

Memorial day weekend, camping with Mom and Aunt. Had a great time despite the heat. Kids were a lot more help this year!!

Of course DS got his finger stuck in a wiffle ball when we got home... DH got it off with ice water and soap.
