Sunday fun and Food Revolution event

It has been such a busy week this week, that I am finding myself a good bit behind in updating the online journals, especially this one!
Last Sunday, we were invited go be a part of a grand opening for a midtown Tucson wellness center and Food Revolution Event.  Tucson Food Revolution is a non-profit which is dedicated to getting people to access local fresh, healthy food sources.  They had asked that we bring along a goat and a few chickens, and showcase the jewelry and all natural soaps at the event.

So Wyatt and I packed up the big truck and set off for town... We set up a small display of jewelry, some soap and lotion bars and a little bit of glassware.  As you can expect, the highlights were the baby chickens and the young goat Patriot's Dream Olympia.

Wyatt even tried some new foods!

Olympia thought it was a little loud. She is used to visiting folks more her size who are either sitting down or hanging out in the grass with her.  So she hid out in her crate a fair amount.

The storm clouds threatened, but in thee end they just kept it cool with only a slight breeze.  No rain on our event!

After we got home to chores and fun,we enjoyed a beautiful sunset with a bright moon.

Love the Arizona sunsets!



The rain gauge was still empty.  We didn't get any from the downpours on Saturday, or the scattered showers on Sunday, but hopefully next time!

Despite that, the seeds I had planted when the kids were sick on Tuesday were already starting to come up!

Hopefully the ones I planted Thursday would not be far behind.


Well, I guess with a little rain, seeds starting, and animals growing we are off to a good start for the year!
