Tick Tock

Daylight Saving Time

Time to change your clocks...

 But not for us...here at Russ-Stick Acres.

For several years, we have opted out of playing the game.

Click HERE to see our story...

Seems silly, actually.

Changing clocks back and forth, back and forth.

How about you?  

Anyone else out there... 

that doesn't partake in the ritual?

It's actually easier than you think.  

You may wish to try it!

Until tomorrow.  God willing.

Racing the Darkness

Every evening, we relish the light.

We fill our time with whoever needs us the most.

Sometimes it's the pigs, sometimes the cows, or chickens, or... 

But tonight, it was a double header.

First, a team of sled dogs, hooked up to run.

And then, Russ heads down the same trail on his horse, Raz.  

What's entertaining is the two that are left behind. 

I swear they were doing figure 8's, full bore, with flying lead changes. 

Another late night of firing up the grill. 

We wouldn't want it any other way.

The Noon Whistle

I love our small town.

And the slow life it brings...to Russ and I.

For us, time isn't set by the usual standards. 
(Read about our reluctance to change our clocks...click above.)

We just try and take each day in stride, like our farm friend's, Pat and Deb.

But one thing we can count on as a marker of time is...

The Noon Whistle.

No matter what we are doing, we stop...reflect...

and know the world is right where it should be...

Being close to nature and God's creatures.

Until tomorrow ~ God willing,
