Goldtown Book Update
It’s time for a Goldtown Adventures update. Book 5, Valley of Treasure, is actually progressing! Thank you, Jesus! I have completed just over 30,000 words, which leaves less than 10,000 to go to reach 40,000 and the end of this adventure. I even have a Contents page that lists the chapter titles. The checkmarks showContinue reading “Goldtown Book Update”
Valentine’s Day Winner!
Josie L. is the winner! Check out the fun Valentine’s Card I made with the verse on the inside. Andi might really have gotten something like this. Josie chose a Circle C hat as her prize, but sadly, I can’t find any of them anywhere! So her second choice is the pink Circle C MilestonesContinue reading “Valentine’s Day Winner!”

What Am I ❓#2 – Dried, Salted Codfish
See more What Am I? Games ➡️ So, what am I? There were 51 great entries. Many entrants thought it was a fossil. Nice try, but in 1865, fossils were just beginning to be discovered. In fact, the term “dinosaur” did not even come into existence until 1841. Since I gave the hint (below) thatContinue reading “What Am I ❓#2 – Dried, Salted Codfish”

Finally! The Ross Ranch’s last goat kid arrived today (Tuesday). A little female, a cross between a purebred, papered Nubian doe and a purebred Nigerian Dwarf buck. She is an F-1 mini Nubian. F-1 means the first generation. If this little doeling is bred to a Nubian buck someday, then her kids will be F-2Continue reading “The Grand Finale”
