Local Music: Jackal Tickets


The Jackal Tickets are a Roanoke band we have been supporting and rocking out too for years now. Their punk rock ska mix is the perfect balance for a great dance show, we always have so much fun. I mentioned in a past post that Troy is also special to me and my sister personally, because he was in uniform folding the flag and presenting it to my grandmother at my pawpaw's funeral, which meant so much to my family.


Troy- Bass/Vocals - Bottom Right
Scott Late- Guitar/Vocals - Top Right
Willett- Drums - Top Left
Reynolds- Trombone/Vocals - Bottom Left
Mike- Saxophone/Vocals - Bottom Left


They had a full house at Martin's downtown Saturday night for this show. The dance floor, bar, and tables were all full. The other bands, Fun Size and Monster Atlantic tore up the stage as well, but unfortunately we didn't catch them in the midst of our crazy show hopping! Maybe next time, guys!
 


We had a great time with the Jackal Tickets, thanks for always rocking our faces off guys!

Until next time,

planting broccoli

Last year I was too late to start the early season plants, but not this time!  I even used my farmers almanac calender to plan the dates to start seeds!  I sure hope this broccoli grows!  It's like a little sneak peak of spring... Until next time, Angela Kelly

a few lessons in rabbit husbandry

We now have two years of experience under our belts raising rabbits. We have learned a lot of useful information already, but we are far from experts. That's the thing with farming, with raising animals, you will never be done learning. Bring it on. As of today we have 17 rabbits in our little group, and the more animals you have the more likely you are to have problems. Here are a few of ours: the girls The first problem we had is with the smallest litter we have, which we have had in a large dog crate on the grass. They are starting to get pretty big, and coming of age, they are starting to get a little frisky. This is bad news bears. I was out watching them and saw three boys ganging up on one girl, so in a hurry I fixed up a cage and moved her into it. She was visibly shaken, breathing quickly, her hair a mess with tufts pulled out (that was the first sign I saw that something was going on.) The next d...

welcome home

Well things do change quickly. We have been back home for just over a week now, after reaching the breaking point at the farm. I won't go into the gory details here (I do try to save the negative for my family and Jonathan to hear), but we are very happy to be home. We are excited to be starting our own farm, though it will be a slow process. There are already signs of accomplishment, we cleaned up a rabbit hutch from a neighbor, and have spent a reasonable amount of time in the wood pile. I have been working on the social media for the farm, you can see the facebook page here , and I will have the blog up in a few days. I decided to create a new and separate blog for the farm, because I still want to fill this space with my creativity and our life together, but I need something to be a little more focused and professional for marketing. So- you have two blogs to read! (Well, you will soon.)  Until next time, Angela Kelly
