| September 29, 2015 Well Hey Yall! Good to see You again. We're happy You had a chance to stop in and see Us today. Its always a special treat to have Yall visit with Us. Hope Your work week was productive and Your weekend with Family and Friends restful and relaxing. Here in South Carolina We have had (and still having) a lot of rain. I think it started raining Wednesday and has rained everyday since here at the Ranch. The Almanac is calling for Rain here this week up until Saturday or Sunday I believe. Thats alot of Rain! Well the ducks will love it anyway. I remember My Momma calling My Grandma Ola in Hartsville when I was little and talking about checking the Almanac. I didnt pay much attention, youngin like back then, but Ya know since I got grown I have realized They both were very smart people. So I try to keep up with it now. We worked more on the stairway this week. We got the hand rail up on the top half of the steps. I hope We can get the spindles done this week and the opening framed in. We also have to work on the stove pipe in the bedroom for the wood stove and its almost time to start cleaning chimneys. Always something to do. I thought I had a picture of the beautiful wood stove We got from Our good Friend Kent awhile back but I can't find it. So I posted this one so Yall could have an idea of what I was talking about. Its time to start filling the woodshed again. We like to use season wood along with some green cut so If Yall know anyone selling cords at a reasonable price please let Us know. With 7 fireplaces and the wood stove We use a lot of wood during winter. Especially since that is Our primary source of heat. I still haven't found My wood cooking stove for the kitchen yet. I want one with an oven so I can actually cook on it. I have been told I was born a century to late. That might be true, but I really love this old fashion way of life. Made the Kids some Blueberry Skillet Cake this week. It was yummy Yall and the kitchen smelled sooo good all afternoon. A big pot of perked coffee went good with it. I had Someone write in the other day and asked Me why We drank only perked coffee and what kind We used. I guess its because thats what We were raised on. Grandma Ola perked Hers on the top of the stove. I have done that although I must confess that We use an electric percolator most of the time. We have a 26 cup percolator We use when We have parties or dinners with a lot of Folks. It just saves time. As for the brand We use, We have always used Maxwell House at the Ranch. We just like the taste better. And Thank you to those who have been writing in. We try to take time to answer each email. We love hearing from Yall and so happy Yall are enjoying the Blog. When We started to Church Sunday Morning, I noticed along the roadside that the Spider Lilies have started to bloom. Thats a sure sign Fall is here. Momma had these in Our yard when I was a little girl. Just love them. I am going to try to get some for Our flower beds at the Ranch soon. The Ranch Family was invited to Homecoming Service at First Baptist last Sunday. What a wonderful Congregation They have. We really enjoyed the dinner and fellowship. Lovely celebration. We encourage You to check the Ranch Calendar for Community, Church and Ranch Events. If Yall have an event You would like for Us to add as well please email Us the info and We will be glad to add this for You. There is no charge for this service. And We post events for all of South Carolina. So glad to help. I am fighting what I hope is allergies since the Golden Rod is blooming now. Least wise I hope its allergies and not a head cold already. Cold weather is not even here yet! Hope Yall have a great week. Really enjoyed Our visit. Stay safe. ~Love from the Ranch~ |
