The Nest Is Empty

Farmer H and the boys went on a private tour of a lead mine today. An operating lead mine. The public tours, given once a year, were to start at 10:00. But Farmer H has connections. And an 8:00 a.m. tour time.

Afterward, The Pony was dropped off at Grandma's, the #1 son went to his bowling league and from there to a friend's house, and Farmer H came home to bond with his goats and work on his shed project. He has since left for the auction, and will pick up The Pony after that. Nobody knows what hour #1 will roll in.

It is unsettling, having all this time to myself.
