    The Massey

    We got almost 3/4” of rain this late afternoon and evening. It was the first time in a while I had the evening free, so I headed to the barn for the first time this year. Until the rain ran them back into the woods, the deer were really beginning to move. It was a beautiful evening. They’re...

    Callery Pear Grafting

    The grafts behind our house are off and running. This is the first time I’ve had more than one graft take. Should I terminate one of them?

    The top-worked tree behind the house is off and running. I like the view behind it just as much. It’s been a long time since there’s been this much water in the little pond.

    Direct Seeding Chestnuts....Sort of...

    I realized I was being pretty redundant, when comparing to other threads, so I deleted it.

    Hello all

    I’m not really much of a gun guy, but the all around rifle I use for shooting coyotes, to killing does in the bonus season, is a Stevens bolt action .223. I use cheap hollow points for the song dogs and 55 gr soft nose for the deer. The Mrs and our daughters use a Remington bolt action .243 with...

    Callery pear ?

    I finally have Dawna talked into taking the heads (it’s a hydra!) off the Cleveland select in the front yard and putting quince, moonglow, and kieffer grafts on it next spring!

    A neighbor to the Massey and good buddy had a very special surprise and gift for me this week. The last 2 year’s sheds off my buck! Including the year with the set that I last had trail cam pics of him in ‘22.

    Stone Branch, build it, they will come.

    Sorry George. Those pups sure have a sneaky way of getting into our hearts. Our lab, Louie, is still doing fine, but I’m beginning to see the toll it takes on him, being a big dog. I’m not looking forward to the day we have to say goodbye.

    We have a home meet scheduled today as well, but Coach was already working on moving it to next Monday. Hopefully you get some more relief from the drought the next couple of days. Are ponds still low over your way?

    Yep, it’s coming down again. Very grateful! We could actually use a break for a while, but the last few years have taught us a grim lesson about that. It’s the first time in 4 years we’ve seen stuff like this in the plots. The unfortunate thing is morning glory has somehow creeped into the...

    John Denver comes to mind for me when it comes to a name. “Almost Heaven”

    To be named later Montana farm

    All those pics are ripe with potential! When we went to the black hills for vacation a few years back and drove over into Wyoming to see Devil’s Tower, I told my wife I could live out there. That’s saying something, because I LOVE the Midwest. It’s just beautiful big country out there, congrats...

    Also, it’s beginning to look like we’re not going to hit our window for alfalfa planting. There is still a small chance, but it’s not looking likely; and trust me, I’m NOT complaining, the rain has been wonderful! We really wanted to make a profit this year for tax purposes, and there is now a...

    All of the chestnut bare roots have awakened now, along with 2 of the persimmons. So far the experiment is going well. I’m dipping the pots once a week and keeping them out of the downpours we’ve been getting some of lately. The most awake persimmon.
