Prepping for Spring

I just finished a lunch meeting with Jayce discussing upcoming posts, some potential new authors, work (real job kinda work) and several other things. One of the topics we discussed is that most of us (your authors) have posted few to no posts in the last month or two. I told him I would write a quick post explaining that :) We’re busy prepping! Actually we really are. During winter it’s a lot easier to spend your “free time” writing good posts. In spring however, many of us are spending all our free time trying to get all the spring prepping and work done so that fall can be a productive harvest! For the last 2 months or so I have spent all my free time moving to a new house (50 acres in Payson) and getting things arranged there. I’ve got several posts lined up in my head and on my camera but haven’t had time to sit down and write. I’m really hoping that during this week I’ll have time to do some quality writing, more than likely though it won’t be for another week or two. In the mean time, I thought I would post some teaser pics of what I’ve been working on and what I’ll be writing on soon.

Here is our new place. You can see the freshly plowed 200x50 garden just below the fence line.

We’ve got a batch of chics that we’re building a chicken tractor for.

We’ve got two new pups that we’ll be training as guard dogs to protect the kids and the house. Their names are War and Peace.

And I’ve got over 650 starts planted and are much further along than this 2 week old picture.

I’m planning on writing extensive posts about all these and several other things that I’ve been working on the last couple months. Sorry for not writing lately but we’re still prepping and hopefully you are too!
