Laying on my horse's back; we both kinda just took an afternoon nap together.

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 73

Hunting meeps with my 12 year old cousin and using cabbage leaves as armor-protection from the meeps. (And we're still not sure what meeps are, that's just what we were calling the imaginary creatures we were hunting).

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 71

The smell of mom making tomato sauce when I get up in the morning. (Smells like the coming of fall, my favorite season).

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 70

Seeing a fish in Gramma's pond.
(We had thrown in a bunch last year after friends of ours caught them fishing, but a heron had been skulking around the pond right after we threw them in. We figured the heron had eaten them all, but looks like at least one managed to get away.)

The birds singing in the trees.
("All the birds in the trees, they were singing so happily, oh joyfully..." ~ That Supertramp song just keeps popping up).

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 65

Imitating Julie Andrews in the Sound of Music while I pick flowers (when no one's watching of course, otherwise I might look just a bit more than strange twirling around in circles).

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 61

Porkchops, nice and dry, just the way I like them (or as my father refers to them "the consistency of old shoe leather).

Figuring out how to fix my computer's exe application, so my programs will open again when I ask/want/need them to. (ah, smiles...)

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 52

Seeing the satisfaction on Dragonfly the cow's face when I give her a big bucket full of old veggies.

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 51

Cultivating the crops with the old planet junior (it's an old push cultivator that belonged to my great-grandfather. Around 100 years old and it still works great).

A bright rainbow rising out of some wispy white clouds, against a backdrop of stark gray.

Simple Pleasures Project, Day 48

Hoeing the pumpkins. (I may have missed the first planting, but at least I get to do the hoeing, because do love that as well).
