Heading to the Farm in Jefferson Bass' Flesh and Bone
The Body Farm series is the team of Jon Jefferson and Dr. Bill Bass. Dr. Bass founded the University of Tennessee Anthropology Research Facility, which I gather is the inspiration for these books. Jon Jefferson is a journalist, writer, and documentary filmmaker. Based on the synopsis in the back cover, I was expecting the story to be full of action and mystery, with some red herrings thrown inā¦
Early Morning Visitors
This is the video I told you about in the previous post, Got More Interesting Critters to Show. You can see the post below. https://thisweekonthesix.wordpress.com/2026/07/01/got-more-interesting-wildlife-to-show In the post, I had a photo of deer and turkeys that showed up early Saturday morning. The turkeys had just been fed some corn, and the deer happened to be walking through. This is aā¦
The Storm we got on Thursday, June 25, 2026
You canāt really tell but it was really coming down. Just before I took this photo, the wind was blowing so hard that visibility was near to zero. You would not want to be driving in this. Thatās it for today. Thank you to everyone who visits and reads my posts. God bless and have a great day. Jamie
What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger?
Daily writing promptWhat do you love now, that you hated when you were younger?View all responses Short answers, vegetables, news, and politics. Vegetables never tasted right or smelled wrong when cooked. The news was always boring and took too long to get to the point, they still do that today even. Politics never seemed to be about what I saw as important, but then I was a kid, so I never sawā¦
Showing Y'all the Back 40
If youāve seen my post on the three new categories, one of those categories is On the Back 40. This post is to show you what that acreage looks like. Overgrown. Itās all overgrown. The clover is all grown up and producing these perennial flowers that are oxeye or dog daisy, according to Google Lens. Also, according to Google, they are considered an invasive species, so the deer can eat to theirā¦
Why don't I annotate my books while I'm reading?
Photo by cottonbro studio on Pexels.com I see people doing this, making notes in the margins like, āThis is really interesting here,ā or āShe makes a great point here,ā but I just see that it cheapens the experience for the next reader. Itās almost like a previous reader is influencing future readers on what they should see as interesting or important to the plot. I donāt see a problem withā¦

Got More Interesting Wildlife to Show
Let me preface this by saying I am not a particularly big fan of snakes. I suppose Iāve gotten used to them as I have gotten older, but I still donāt like them. With all of that said, look at this guy. He is an Eastern Milk Snake, according to Google, but we all know how trustworthy Google is. His tail was rattling or maybe it was twitching, like a rattlesnake, and he was not happy. He slitheredā¦
Hummingbird on Feeder with Female Baltimore Oriole
I got this one-minute video when I was checking out the greenhouse. I was looking to see how hot it was in there with the sun beating on it all day and it being 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Pretty stuffy. But I came back out, and a ruby-throated hummingbird had just landed on the feeder; I didnāt want to scare her away, or at least I think itās a her, and then I remembered I donāt have any videos ofā¦
A Reflection on June 30, 2026 with Ephesians 5:20
Photo by Dmitry Zvolskiy on Pexels.com The wind is blowing with the hotĀ sun beating its rays on the earth. The neighbor is mowing the grass and the mower sounds like an airplane ready to take off. The birds are singing their songs while the frogs are croaking out their calls. The crickets are chirping. A day in the life. What a time to be alive. There are some days where it seems it canāt getā¦
Surprising Update... For the Flowers, Anyway
You remember the post I made with the last update on the vegetables and flowers that we planted and then killed. The photo below is a reminder of our overzealousness. I was going to take all of these flats and dump them in the back, but look what came up. This is about two hours after that big rain ended. We got another little shower, but that wonāt hurt much, hopefully. Every one of the bottomā¦

Diving Deep in Clive Cussler's Zero Hour
Zero Hour opens with a group of people, well connected and some military, like, Brigadier General Hal Cortland, in a cavern in northern California. The year is 1906. A scientist called Daniel Watterson has figured out how to pull energy from the air, at first it looks like lightning, or more accurately electricity, which it being 1906 isnāt anything that this group hasnāt seen before. What itā¦
Turkeys Walking Across the Pond
A two-minute video of the tom and hen turkeys walking across the pond. The toms take a moment to get a drink from the pond before moving on across the road. Thank you for visiting and reading my blog. God bless and have a great day. Jamie
Three New Categories
As you can see from the menu, I have added three new categories, Curiosities, On the Back 40 and Weather. Iām hoping with these new sections I will be able to keep you updated with everything happening back in the woods and all the weather we get here. Curiosities will be my way of telling you all about the animals and plants that I find. A little taste of Curiosities. With plants like oakā¦
Finding and Potting Trees
We were walking the hill area where the greenhouse is sitting, trying to figure out how to fit the dog pen and two 12Ć14 sheds there. During this walk we found all these trees. So many oaks of different kinds, a fruit tree, and a chestnut, according to Google. Iām not entirely sure because the all-information king, Google, said something was poison ivy when it was clearly not poison ivy. Leavesā¦
Charles Spurgeon: Emptiness of Life Without God
I have another Pinterest find here from Charles Spurgeon that states, āNothing teaches us about the preciousness of the Creator as much as when we learn the emptiness of everything elseā. It has been hard to describe how I have been feeling for the last few years. I donāt know when this started exactly but there has been so much in my life that has lost its magic. Thatās what I am calling itā¦
First Bike Ride with the GoPro
This is my first video using the GoPro I got one year for Christmas. I have just now figured out how to use it and what I want to use it for. Pretty much bike rides and walks around the woods, maybe the road sometimes. Hope you enjoyed the video, and thank you for visiting. God bless and have a great day. Jamie
