Franny and I trotted down to the vegetable garden the other day to see how things were growing. The weather has been getting milder and I suppose the danger of frost has passed. We found Shaun and Wilmer out there planting all the tomatoes they grew from seed and of course, Franny and …
On a recent afternoon, I found myself alone since Francesca and G.K. were busy having a nap. I just didn’t feel like joining them, so I went outside and hopped on a Kawasaki for a little spin around the farm. There are always new and wonderful things to see.

Martha grows many, many peonies at the farm. There is an enormous garden of herbaceous peonies and a long bed of exotic tree peonies. The fragrance of these flowers is intoxicating and I wanted to pick a lovely bouquet to enjoy in the house. Franny became very bossy when I suggested this and we had …
The other morning when we woke up, a gentle rain was falling. I was getting a little stir crazy and told Sharkey to find our rain slickers so that we could go outdoors. We trotted down to where the lilies grow and we found the crew wearing rain slickers, too. They were busy weeding and …
