Please forgive me...again.

I have not been in the office for the last two weeks, because of a job going on out "in the field." We were pulling some underground storage tanks and I so I wasn't sitting in front of a computer all day like I normally am. It was a nice break, something to look forward to I guess.

The gardens are coming along. Just to give you an idea what I mean by "backyard garden" here are a few photos from a couple of weeks ago. One is actually the backyard, the other is on the side of the house.



Here's a picture of my rain collector as well, with my pump almost hooked up (it's done now). Now all we need is some rain.


I finished "Family Farming: a New Economic Vision" by Marty Strange and would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the struggle against industrial farming. It has some great statistics and info regarding the farm crisis of the 1980's.

We signed up for LibraryThing and have started entering our books in. It's actually a lot of fun and quite addictive.

Hopefully I'll have something interesting to share here shortly.

My Thoughts on Prayer
Our Father which art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
