"Self-sufficiency does not mean 'going back' to the acceptance of a lower standard of living. On the contrary, it is the striving for a higher standard of living, for food that is organically grown and good, for the good life in pleasant surroundings... and for the satisfaction that comes from doing difficult and intricate jobs well and successfully." John Seymour ~ Self Sufficiency 2003

Another sign of Spring

We're hectically busy here, so this is just a quick post to keep in touch.

RMan spotted these two the other day, and rushed in to grab the Canon to take a pic.
I don't know what type of birds these babies are,
but boy, are they cute :)

    1. John - I hope you have a "proper" winter - ours has been pathetic! Very disrupting and disconcerting.

      Winter should be cold. Winter should be wet. And winter may have snow. We live in a winter rainfall area, and we certainly have not had our normal rainfall this winter!

Thank you for taking the time to comment - it makes my day and removes the "loneliness' of sitting at my screen blogging supposedly to myself ;) I try and reply as quickly as possible so please forgive me if sometimes my response is delayed.
