It seems that with keeping a quarter million members happy, managing Facebook upgrades and keeping the ranch going, along with training my pony, creating a monthly 68 page magazine is just that one thing that keeps me sane. Enjoy.

Time passes
 | ||
| September 21, 2005 |
Having a horse that has never known another owner is both wonderful and scary.
He came out and took a deep breath, the dance began.
A year later, his mom was gone and he was starting work in the round pen.
 |
| December of 2006 |
Aslan came out full of "ponytude". He loves to play. He grew steadily.
 |
| Winter solstice, 2007 |
I saddled him a few times when he was two.
But mainly he got to hang out in a pasture and mature. He grew in attitude.
Aslan knew he was destined to be top horse here on the ranch.
There was just the matter of being only 14 hands high.
The other horses let him know he was not the boss.
So did the humans.
Riding him is like driving a small, very fast sports car.
He is six years old today.
Happy birthday, Aslan Equinox.

Solstice slow food
Every day here is another item getting bigger. These long days of intense sunlight make things grow so fast. Here in the desert it is a trick to keep them wet enough.
Boysenberries are in.
They take a half hour to pick.
Every day.
Beans are up, they need to be dusted with diatomaceous earth every evening. You can see a slug in this picture, chowing down before the sun hits the plants.
Then there is the tomato garden below,
These tomatoes are doubling in size every day. Likely first ones will be ripe in a couple weeks. Why were there no Early Girls this year? These are Better Boy plants.
The potato garden was slow to start this year but looks good, the sunniest area is just about ready to replant with new seeds.
If potatoes were not so common, they would be a gourmet expensive food. As it is, they are a staple.
Oh, and school is out. Our site traffic has doubled. Welcome to summer!

Then there is the tomato garden below, with eggplants and onions...and a gopher that I am trying to trap -- unsuccessfully so far.
