Catching Up

I haven't blogged in quite a while as you can see.

However, that doesn't mean I have been idle at the farm.

In August, 2008, we started building the house. We are building the house slowly and hope to be finished in a few years. HOWEVER, we did actually move into the guest end of the house Christmas Eve, 2008.

In the spring of 2009 we began preparing the yard for grass planting and began with our landscaping. Close to 30 knockout roses, some loropetalum, 20 or so different azaleas, a bottlebrush, some weeping willows, viburnum, lantana, wildflowers and confederate jasmine, have been planted. We hope to get in a few bulbs before it gets too cool.

You can follow some of our progression through the photos of the house and farm progression

I will try to get some of the photos as well as the trials and tribulations up on a more regular basis.
