an experiment in free writing


I am sitting at our dining table, sipping coffee and eating oatmeal, preparing for another day. I am trying to think of a topic to write about, but not having much success, so I decided to use an old high school english class tool- free writing. The idea is to put words to paper for a few minutes, even if you don't have an idea of what to write, just to get your brain going. I have tons of ideas for great blogs, the problem is I never get around to taking the right photos at the right time to make it all come together. Perhaps I will share some of my ideas? I've been thinking it would be fun to make some food posts, since I have been cooking much more here on the farm. It isn't anything fancy, but simple home made meals and treats, using what I have and can find. Another idea is art posts. Since stocking up on card stock a few weeks ago I have been a paper project machine. Since it is Mother's Day coming up this weekend, I am working on gifts for my dear mothers (mine and Jonathan's, whom we both consider our own.) This afternoon I will begin putting them together (with camera in hand, for once!) Music and poetry are two other topics which provide endless posts, though not as personal as the others (since I can neither play music nor write poetry.) The farm obviously gives me a plethera of ideas worthy of blogging, it is only a matter of putting them together. I have been working on an interesting and informative post about chickens, which I will (hopefully!) get finished sometime this week. The last idea I have been mulling over is writing several blogs and uploading them at the same sitting (since I do not have steady access to the internet), and I can schedule them to post on certain days and times. That means- I could have a whole weeks worth of posts, actually online! Well it is nearing time to get outside and break a sweat, so for now, farewell. Any feedback regarding my ideas is welcome!

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved.   Until next time, Angela Kelly

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly

the dogs of luna acres - always ready to go

Our little farm is quite over run with animals, although most of them not the working farm type. The three dogs take turns guarding the place and sleeping on the couch. They all have their flaws and strengths, but not one of them what most would consider "well trained". We love them all the same, we know it our own fault for not working harder for them. We are blessed with space for them to run relatively free on their own. The yard this time of year is littered with deer legs and bones, the occasional head or spinal cord. It's a good life for these dogs.  Trilli and Dakota ready to go Dakota eating the snow Bandit, the oldest pup, is still always ready for a walk, even if he doesn't make it all the way there the view this afternoon  It's funny, even with all the freedom, they are always ready to go for a walk. Until next time, Angela Kelly
