Late Late For a..

… well you know the rest.  I woke late this morning!

Yesterday was another sweet day. The sheep slept with Mama who was chewing her cud and watching the world go by from her bed in the field.

The plonkers laid about in the long grass. there-we-are-027

The calves slept in the sun. Thrilled that the forecast is for more Cool sun.there-we-are-016 there-we-are-015 there-we-are-009

Last night we were out late, it was Triple T’s  last night before he rejoins his troop in Hawaii. As you know there are massive cut backs in the army nowadays and I talked to him about us helping out (Lacey started this – thank you darling) with rakes and food and toilet paper and things.  He said he was happy to help dole things out to his mates over there.  There are many American troops dotted around the world in  areas that are not warzones and frankly it seems that they are a wee bit forgotton. Though toilet paper would be especially for the boys in basic training who cannot get out to buy their own – we are working on that one -Rakes and brooms and cookies and real food.  Linen, blankets .. I need to make a list.  But these boys are sat in small out of the way places  – just in case.. they need our support too.

So get in touch if you want to be involved or even better, if you  have thoughts on how to make this happen – can The Fellowship adopt a military troop? What do you think? This is new to me.  But I think we could do that. Could we do  that? There is a need and many of you want to help the troops but how do we proceed? there-we-are-041

I found an abandoned snake skin in the wood shed.  Isn’t that amazing?

I hope you all have a lovely, lovely day.

  1. I’d like to help in some way, too. Keep us posted. Lots of heart-warming photos today. Coneflowers are a favorite of mine.

  2. I love animals in grassy fields – ahh the smell of summer and life.
    Most of the times I’ve helped troops has been through some mom with a kid stationed somewhere. He/she sent suggestions of items needed (and sent pictures back in return)- we gathered up stuff (socks are popular) and boxed it and sent it to kid who was willing to share. So maybe we send money for shipping/stuff to you? There may be special military rates for those deliveries? If Amazon would ship the rakes directly, it would really help. Will try to keep up as things progress on this
