You'll see. . . <BR/><BR/>Hi Kitchenmage,<BR/>Yes, it is a beautiful world! Yes, do the seasonal photo thing! Yes, I am envious of all that rain--and so are my fields and plants! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Mrs D.,<BR/>I guess I was right--you are in an interesting (and stereotype-defying) spot up there. Wow, twenty-two inches of rain isn't much at all. But, then again, at least you get to look at the ocean. . . : )Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1127408215776243702005-09-22T11:56:00.000-05:002005-09-22T11:56:00.000-05:00Kitchenmage, you may get 120... we get somewhere ...Kitchenmage, you may get 120... we get somewhere around 22, tops. Sure the woods are still green but every stretch of grass is brown brown brown! It's a rather flukey thing actually. We're in Olympic Rainshadow Central, which means the rain clouds just come to a screeching halt west of here and dump everything.MizDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10143579988879218142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1127280739778293482005-09-21T00:32:00.000-05:002005-09-21T00:32:00.000-05:00Beautiful, but then again, it really is a beautifu...Beautiful, but then again, it really is a beautiful world--I may have issues with people on occasion, but the planet's pretty! I've been talking about doing exactly that seasonal photo thing myself, with this tree out in front of my place as a focal point. It's almost the view from my front porch.<BR/><BR/>As for the other people from the Pacific Northwet, I don't know what they are talking about: it's gloriously green out there, down here at least. Of course, my place gets 120 inches of rain a year (yep, 120, that's not a typo) so it's not a fair comparison to most of the region, but still. :-)kitchenmagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992982861785057694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1127254152440558332005-09-20T17:09:00.000-05:002005-09-20T17:09:00.000-05:00Really, Farmgirl, you are expecting changing colou...Really, Farmgirl, you are expecting changing colours soon?

Sounds like you are in an interesting little corner of the world up there.<BR/><BR/>Um, yeah, a fading slide show sounds great.

Well, I didn't realize you grew up on a farm--that's wonderful. And nice that I can whisk you back there--without your having to do any chores! Oh, I love the rain. Plants love the rain! <BR/><BR/>Hello again Baking Soda,<BR/>Congratulations! You are obviously well on your way to figuring out blogger. Next will be snatching those bread photos out of cyberspace--I tried to go to that link you left the other day but it didn't work. You, a bother?

How wonderful ...Hi Baking Soda,<BR/>Welcome to the farm! How wonderful to have a visitor all the way from Holland. I bet it can't be too dreary over there. : ) Not sure why blogger won't let you post your name. Did you try checking the "other" box? Well, at least if you sign your name I'll know it's you. Looking forward to hearing from you again.<BR/><BR/>Hi Clare,<BR/>I definitely like the idea. Now, according to that article about Ansel Adams (that Cookiecrumb left a link to in yesterday's comments), I guess I should be making a big mark exactly where I stand to take each picture so I can perfectly recreate it next time around! I was thinking about that this morning and smiling.<BR/><BR/>Hi Cherrybegonia,<BR/>Yes, I'm sure there will be snow pics. I know there will be ice pics. And then in late winter there will be baby lamb pics! <BR/><BR/>Hi Amy,<BR/>This is how bad I used to be. (I can't believe I'm admitting this.) The last place I lived in California was in a tiny 1937 house in an old downtown neighborhood. In front of the sidewalk were those squares of dirt where you could plant things. Ours had a little fig tree in it. <I>Three years in a row</I> I thought the tree was dying because all of the leaves were falling off. . .<BR/><BR/>Hi Mijo,<BR/>I do, too!<BR/><BR/>Hi Jim,<BR/>Welcome to the farm! Yes, I received all your nice comments. And please, feel free to link away! Thanks so much. I'll definitely be heading over to check out your blog.<BR/><BR/>No, I think that I was stung by a red wasp. They are nasty little things that get mad at the drop of a hat--or dress, I guess I should say. Oh, that hurt! If anyone is wondering what I'm talking about, click <A HREF="http://www.foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/06/that-outfit-could-kill-you.html" REL="nofollow"><B>here.</B></A><BR/><BR/>Hi Socalfoodie,<BR/>So glad your comment just slipped in while I was writing this because I didn't get a chance the other day to give you your personal: Welcome to the farm! Yes, the changing seasons are definitely a treat. After 11 years, though, I'm still surprised several times each year. It's like you have to remember a whole set of "things" every time the season changes (not to mention dig out all different clothes). I cannot believe how many coats and jackets I own. : )Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1127228908654839482005-09-20T10:08:00.000-05:002005-09-20T10:08:00.000-05:00It's so beautiful there.
