We headed back across the lake today to bring Loca to the country to live with my cousin and his zoo of sheep, goat, cow, bull, horse, donkey, rabbit, and puppy. What a wonderful day it was to see Loca running with Jake, his new friend, a six week old black lab puppy. We took Tin’s friend with us and the country did us all good.

I’m forever thankful for this land, for the roots my mother brought to me, for the country life, and for the family that connects me to over a half century of wisdom and love. We drove off with Loca and Brian in our rearview mirror and Jake, the puppy scampering about.

We then went and had a picnic of roasted vegetable sandwiches and apples at Mimi’s grave – I’m sure she is thrilled to have Loca nearby.

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
Aint much an old country boy like me cant hack
Its early to rise, early in the sack
Thank God Im a country boy

Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin me a family and workin on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God Im a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle
When the suns comin up I got cakes on the griddle
Life aint nothin but a funy funny riddle
Thank God Im a country boy

When the works all done and the suns settlin low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God Im a country boy
