It's sure been an upside down world this year, hasn't it? I hope that everyone has made it through these last few months safely. . .I have found so many blessings during these uncertain times. . .and one of them has been our farm. . .We didn't have to stay all cooped up in the house because, when you live on a farm, there's always wide open spaces. . .and plenty to do for exercise. . .There's been spring cleaning. . .spring "take everything out of the barn that I put in last fall" days. . .spring gardens to weed and plant. . .new beginnings all around.
Social distancing isn't difficult for our farmers either. . .since only one person can drive a tractor at any time. . .They are late planting this year, though. . .but not because of shut-downs or sheltering in place. . .They've been sheltering for sure, but from the rain and storms that just don't seem to let up. . .Hopefully, these next two weeks they'll be able to get in the fields. . .
Not a planting season goes by that I don't feel the excitement of it. . .or think about the family stories that have been passed down. . .So, I thought. . .maybe. . .if you need a little diversion from our uncertain everyday life of the present, you might enjoy reading one of those stories. . .about springtime at the old company store. . .Just click on the link below and be taken to a spring day of the past. . .
Take a break. . .and enjoy. . .
Hope it warms your heart. . .
