Hokies beat Boston College Eagles

Dad was up this weekend to go to the Boston College verses Virginia Tech football game this Saturday. It was a good game, not great. The Hokies shut out the Eagles, so we had a good time. We sat RIGHT behind the field goal posts. You can see us in the grainy video at the 10-minute mark. Overall, really fun time!

 

Election Notes

I mentioned voting yesterday. Here are the results from the election I voted in.

On other notes about the elections, the Tea Party seems to be able to throw money at its candidates. And they WIN! I think it could go either way in the general. Some, who are crazy and too far right, will rally the dems to come vote. Others will pull their tea party advocates to the polls.

Just Voted

Massachusetts held its state primary elections today. I am just back from the polls. Being a Democrat is a left-leaning state left me with few choices--not that I minded.

Here is a link to my ballot (not my choices).

"Mass Farms Tour"

So yesterday, Stacey and I rented a car to drive to three different farms. The first was Red Fire Farm, which is the farm where we get our CSA share from. I ran in a 5k Tomato Trot race, while Stacey volunteered for the event.

Next we drove to Tougas Farm to pick peaches. We bought a half bushel (over 70 peaches) to make sauces, jams, and desserts!

Finally, we drove to Eastleigh Farm to get Raw milk. We plan on making butter (Stacey is while I type), which gives butter milk, and then some mozzarella cheese, too.

Check out Stacey and my blog for more details.

I posted a picture of some of the tomatoes we grew in the garden on Stacey and my blog. Check it out!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CYRUS!!

Happy Birthday, Lyka!!

Finally, you are 26. I was wondering if you were going to make it!

Hope you have a great day, Malyka!

Happy EASTER!!

 Happy Easter and a Blessed Passover. This is actually the first Easter I can remember NOT attending church. Spiritually it has been different (and difficult at times) this year. Today though, was a GREAT day.
