On the homestead blog: rainy weather makes the feral cats want to stay home, warm in their heated cat house and cabins. So brace for some snuggly cuteness. #Caturday 🐈

Oops… I should have used a larger jar when feeding this sourdough starter clone. 🍞

On the homestead blog: a big Flock Friday today, with 33 photos of ducks and chickens, plus a GIF with those and 31 more at the end. I took lots of nice shots of the ducks, so wanted to share them. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓


On the homestead blog: the ducklings are in their last week in the duck house and run. 🦆

More from our trip to Hawaii in 2005; we enjoyed a rainbow by the Diamond Head volcanic cone before celebrating our anniversary at a resort restaurant, and bringing back a chocolate Diamond Head dessert. #ThrowbackThursday





On the homestead blog: a focus on food today for the ducklings. 🦆

Timely quote from Heinlein’s Time Enough for Love: 💬
If you are part of a society that votes, then do so. There may be no candidates and no measures you want to vote for … but there are certain to be ones you want to vote against. In case of doubt, vote against. By this rule you will rarely go wrong.
If this is too blind for your taste, consult some well-meaning fool (there is always one around) and ask his advice. Then vote the other way. This enables you to be a good citizen (if such is your wish) without spending the enormous amount of time on it that truly intelligent exercise of franchise requires.
