Thanks to my everyone’s darling Tiff, I’m blowing the dust off this old, wrinkly blog thingy. Looking at the dashboard as though it’s a 1948 Farmall – I think I remember what this here lever does, now if only I can get it to move out of this rut I’ll be plowing up all sorts of fallow dirt. For what, I’m not sure – but hey, FARM EQUIPMENT! How could that not be fun?
Speaking of which, got to visit my kinfolk in California not once but twice this year (most of ’em anyway). This is special because the normal schedule averages out to once every 8 years. Took lots of pictures and did lots of stuff.
But first, here’s what they do for fun in New Zeeland:
**********UPDATE
This post has been interrupted by a tiny little spark, one that caused my old laptop to go dark forevah.
Gone are all the photos I didn’t back up, all the music I’ve collected one or two discs (or songs) at a time, and many other keepsake-type things.
Off to make new memories and back them up religiously. Since today’s the day I get over it, I’ll just hit ‘post’ and make the next post a good one.

Let me know when those sheep learn to play space invaders….

The sheep – or rather the dogs that herd them – are fabulous!! I’m stealing this one for FB and I hope you don’t mind!
Welcome back, and I hope that whatever sparked this post will spark many others in the near future!!
Miss you guys!

If you have a Best Buy or computer repair shop nearby, they may be able to recover the contents on your hard drive. I’ve had it done twice already! Maddening, but I didn’t lose any pictures! LOL.

Yeah, the bored sheep farmers of New Zealand are a riot.
