major excitement around these parts- just walked out the front door- our free range yard bunny
picked herself a bouquet of flowers- pictures of it going into the grinder.

Thanks- my aunt has a bunch of old family photos- plus my grandmother took so many pictures, it really was a picture taking generation. Before the lockdown, I went down to San Diego for my great aunts funeral, been meaning to post the pictures of the old Catholic Church, where it
Was held. My grandmothers parents settled in downtown San Diego- this church I’m talking about was used for the families weddings and funerals.

When I get around to it- my aunt also has a civil war sword/ discharge papers and frock coat- from my grandfathers side of the family.....and somewhere, I have his letters from the war, I just have to find them.

Lawn, gardens, foraged food, top soil, vintage family photos- what more could you want, all
in one place.

Russ far right- grandparents middle- His mother and sister far left 1958-59

My Italian side of the family, I'll ask my aunt about the age of the photo, My grandmother had 12 brothers and sisters- 9 made it to adulthood, and had kids of their own. I believe Carlo is far left?
He was killed in Italy during WW2.

Yeah, it's a lot of time on the tractor, Sansome. Luckily I like being on the tractor.
There are some cattle ranches around here. Also oil fields & general agriculture. A lot of grape vines gone in recently. Sucking up all our water...

That’s what you call a no nonsense weed eater, looks a lot like cattle country CSL?
I can hardly manage just under a quarter acre, I can’t imagine 60 times that amount.
Nice wide open spaces, California has a lot to offer.

I do most of our mowing with a tractor. Just got this battery powered wacker by Shindaiwa for the fine grooming. Not bad...
