March, April, and May

Hey there!
It's been a long time with no posts. Crazy spring with all the folks around procreating, raising babies, digging gardens, planting stuff, planning FARTAB, FARTAB itself, working, and whatnot.

Instead of trying to catch you up, I'll just post a few pix.

March:
Starting garden seeds inside the first week of March

Transplanting a Rhododendron in the yard. It was half dead when we got here and I brought it back to life by keeping the deer from eating it every winter. Then this spring I decided it needed to move so I transplanted it.


Little Miss Forty relaxing in the fresh air out in her swing. She loves the swing!

Oh, you may have heard that we had a flood at the end of March. Here's the woods under 4 feet of water. That is FlatTires out there.

April:

Time to dig new gardens. We have alot of rock. Alot.
Little Miss Forty discovered going barefoot. She just sits there sometimes and shuffles her feet in the grass.

And that leaves are crunchy.

Around mid April we had WAJAHADAB. Work Around J's Awesome House - ADAB. Here FlatTires demonstrates the proper backhoe technique... that is why they put cupholders in them.

Purgatory Black Magic dirt/compost that was painstakingly raked smooth and seeded with Horse Pasture Mix. What else to use in the Beermuda Triangle?
Big River cleanup. Lots of tires in them-there woods!

Someone else had the same idea as Sleepy G for a table decoration. Except I don't think Sleepy had a Buzzcocks album cover on his. Or are these tape covers? Found at "The Sisters".

May.

Digging new gardens at Casa de Crayons. Good times!


Little Miss Forty is showing off on Little Greased Up Deaf Guy's ATV. She's a hot sh*t!
FARTAB Vol 7 was a success. Here is BaldBoy at the take-out in Westerly. I only got one other pix the entire trip, and that is at the very beginning of BaldBoy's 'costume'. And it is inappropriate for such a family friendly blog.

Rumor has it that the Umbrella Factory in Charlestown is up for sale. That would be a shame if it got developed... it has the claim to fame for being the oldest farm in continuous operation in North America..since the 1700s. Most of the animals are gone and the shops are looking a little empty. This is still there, and here are Mrs and Little Miss Forty checking it out. Last week the strawberries got ripe! They are Everywhere!!! Hope all is well!
