I had nothing to read the other day, so I picked up the March issue of the Maine Antique Digest, one of Martha’s favorite antiques publications.  It’s filled with all sorts of ads for antique shows around the country and also some very interesting articles about antiquities.  One article, in particular, caught my attention about …

Even though it’s been a rather mild winter, Francesca and I are antsy for spring to arrive.  It’s still February, but if you look hard enough, there are signs of spring in many places around the farm.  The other day, I fired up the engine of the Kawasaki, I went and found Francesca paying a …
