Life in another small town like all small towns...really

Butterfly Weed and Butterflies
The Butterfly weed has somehow become our signature flower. Soon they will be going to seed and this flower is one of the last that I found. Do you see the three tiny butterflies? Their stripped antennae are only visible to me enlarged. Beautiful.
Magnificent! I really, really love the top photo. If you click over to LouisianaBelleForever (in the blogs I follow), Belle has a photo blog. She entered a contest at PilgrimWoman (I think so called, or very close) and was honored for a photo. It's like the ultimate honor in blogland. I think you could also be honored.
I have a friend with gastro intestinal problems who can only drink goat's milk which, come to find out, is all the healthy rage. Do you have a dairy on the farm? (Just wondering; I'm not wild about any kind of milk.)
The blog is really notes to my friends, old and new, to let you know what's going on in our lives. Its also a diary of sorts for myself. It started at the farm in Ligonier, PA, hence the name, but now life and work has moved us back to Connecticut,
I've always taken lots of photos and sent postcards from everywhere we travel, just to keep in touch. Email took over and then the digital camera.
Instead of me plugging up your email, you can check in when you have the time.
And yes, another town with the same problems as any other!!!
Please enjoy and let me hear from you...really~

I know a lot of people know English much better than we know any other language, but for those that want some help, me included, I'm trying this translator. Please leave a message to let us know where you are viewing from. Ciao!

Goats milk has been a standby for many years, but mine are meat goats. They can be milked of course, but we only do when there are problems with kids.
I prefer my milk as cheese.
Very pretty pictures! Thanks for sharing!
That awesome i love your blog.
