I retired this year, so Im gonna have time to read and think about stuff. However, I believe my ability to think clearly has been somewhat diminished by years of healthy living in the country. Im forever stopping to smell the roses and watch the grass grow. Im esily diverted from my main point, unless we talk about stuff I love , like geology, art, science in general, federal politics, Armegeddon, and recipes.
On second thought , the only thing I have no interest in is gaming or trivia threads, most of those are lame requests for answers to some stupid crossword.
I do a lot of painting in watercolor. Ive taken up more oil painting and have been doing lots of plein aire work. I must have taken lessons sometime in the past .
My farm is pretty much self operating since we dont do row crops anymore, only grass and pature related products (livestock and hay). By necessity , Ive become an amateur veterinarian because , when one raises livestock, one is always confronted by accident or infection in ones charges and one better learn quickly how to medicate and what sympta to look for.
I wish evreybody would fill out their profiles, seriously. If you dont fill out your profile, youre a douche bag.
