Joslyn and I rode along with John this morning as he did a little fencing.
It rained four inches here this week, and it’s quite obvious by these few photos.
Sadly, we had some alfalfa down during this rain. We were all a little depressed about that, but for all the crops and pastures the rain was good.
It is not this wet everywhere, we were just working in a low spot where the water from the rain is draining out toward Lake Henry.
Happy Friday!
Where do I start with writing to introduce this blog? At the beginning, I suppose: I’ve been writing on various platforms online since 2013. I started blogging shortly after moving to South Dakota.
I am a mother and a maker at heart. I’m so grateful to be married to John and mother of three: Joslyn, J.D. and Jesse.
I am a self-taught decorator and designer. I am a brand new shepherdess and a Spiritual Director.
I love living in South Dakota, even though the winters & the wind can be a near-daily struggle.
Blogging is a grounding force in my life and it helps get me out of my head, unstuck and moving in the directions I always hoped I’d be going!
I just finished reading your book Wild Man and so enjoyed reading about the stories of your family. I recall going to the Western Store to get our cowboy boots, and a ride over with my Dad to check out the poker game adventure at the Laundry mat in Auxvasse. Thanks for sharing the memories!

What a great place to grow up!
