Summer Starting to End on the Farm

-

It has been good spending time on the farm. I really had forgotten how quiet and dark it is here. It can actually be a bit unnerving. The leaf doodle bug was put to work in the forest. However, it looks like the car will be going back on the road. We can say it failed field trials,but that would only be partially true. The better utility value at this point is more suited to getting a teenager back and forth from high school. The mycological aspects of the farm did not disappoint. The pics of these shrooms are not photoshopped. The coal stove (very heavy) is loaded on the truck. It will be rebuilt in Georgia if I can save it. Coal stoves are increasingly out of production. When they are gone they are gone. The small wood stove is now in its place. The pic of the red sky in morning was indeed a warning of weather. We had strong storms and tornados in Upstate NY. Although I was travelling much that day in the area, I missed the worst of it.

I need to fix the archive issue with my blog. I really have to add the RSS feeds. (blah blah blah more projects Argghh!!!?/ ). I probably should drop out of school and devote more time to the web world. I see some cool stuff to get going. How things change. Earlier in my life I would drop out to pursue things. Now, I stay in not to pursue things. It is priorities, basic priorities. I will have to start posting more pictures soon. There is so much happening. I just got a chill. Bonnie says that happens when someone walks on your grave. It is windy and cold out there. It was 50 Above yesterday. I really hate the wind (so do the llamas). It seems that wind is one of Mother Nature's recycling devices. First from the north for 12 hours then from the south for 12 hours. We give up already.

I was thinking about some of the best speeches the world has ever known (Disclaimer: English language, recorded, rich media, history). One that always comes back is the one of Martin Luther King Jr,. Of course, Winston Churchill and our great U.S. Presidents are right in there too. Fantastic! Most people do not realize that he (King) was killed (look up assassinate in the dictionary) shortly after he gave this speech. Consider that fact as you listen to this audio (about 19 minutes, scroll ahead to the last 6 minutes or the last 3 minutes for most of us people on a busy schedule. Just make sure you understand the "if I had sneezed" reference). It is worthwhile. I apologize for the real audio format. Many people do not realize that RA is a demonic format. Toastmasters Note: Listen for when King confuses 1200 Miles with 1200 feet. He moves through the speech fludidly and without reflection. Skill. He moves on with confidence and grace.
