RE: Heavy weekend of rotavator-digging-planting and sunshine.

in #farming7 years ago

Your woodworking skills look as good as mine. I remember in shop class I made the most lopsided toolbox you ever could lay eyes on.

The broken starter cord is also something that would happen to me. Hey, maybe my luck has drifted to you and I am beginning to turn this franchise around over here. Hahahaha

Awesome how you are planting several gardens. My huge dream is to one day retire with some land and do nothing but work the land. I read a book decades ago about the real alchemists using the soil to transmute their own hearts and the dream always stayed with me.

Just curious, but are you any good on the Sax?

Sort:  

Yes my woodwork sucks lol, you can keep that bad luck though. Working the land sounds romantic, though the reality is it is bloody back breaking stuff, and regards to the sax I am no pro, just a have a go kind of guy, I like improvising and even with the guitar I do the same, I read no music, I just play and have fun. I have played in bands, nothing serious though, just pub stuff for beers and smiles.

though the reality is it is bloody back breaking stuff

It is for sure. I think that might be part of why it is healing.

I do not know how to play any instruments, but one day once i am finally settled somewhere I would like to learn to play the piano.

Finally settled?

Sounds like sir is living a free life on the move to me. :-)

Hah, I wish. Life keeps demanding I start over again. It has been a cycle since my divorce ten years ago. I am hopeful that my determination to stop the cycle will be enough to at least put it on my terms in the coming years.

Oh sorry to hear that my friend, though determination will win through, and you seem like a determined and intelligent man, so in you I have every faith.

We are going to have to meet up 1 day for a beer or 10, that's for sure.

I would like that very much. Had it been 10 years ago closer to 10, nowadays about 1 and a half for me, lol. My second wife was an alcoholic and it helped wean me off it, lol.
