Flashback to May: Part One

I had a visitor in May! She is Ambar; she has cojones of steel.

Ambar, who is not only drop-dead gorgeous, but also generous, tough, and ready for anything. She rode 10 hours on a bus to visit me, carrying large amounts of chocolate, wine and cheese for my belated birthday present. A birthday so belated that any normal person would have let stay in the past, and wouldn't have made the effort of smuggling a Malbec on the Greyhound. She swam in a freezing cold lake in May in her skivvies without shrieking or teeth-chattering. And if you ever need someone to pop a goat's amniotic fluid sac and pull the baby out with a four second warning, Ambar is the gal to have around. 











You can do this too, if you visit me!

  1. Whoa. I'm down for all of it, except maybe that last one. How about Ambar does all the amniotic sac poking for the two of us?

  2. O my god it's so great to see Ambar again!!!!!!!!!!You are so right on all counts on Ambar. And I love your photos. Of course the first one! Then the one of the clothes in the tree, it tells a whole story by itself.

    You make life on the farm look so exciting!
