We’ve all got a lot on our minds right now with everything happening in the world. There’s not much I can do about most of it, so I’m focusing on the things I can do. I’m staying home and I’m bringing you On Pasture.

I also thought a look at Arizona springtime might be a cheery thing to see – as a preview of what will be happening soon all over.

This bush, with flowers that smell like grape Jolly Ranchers is blooming more than it ever has in our 6 years in Tucson. Imagine smelling that as you walk out your front door!

And the penstemon are outdoing themselves!

I’m Grateful!

I’m grateful for Spring showing up.

I’m also grateful to everyone who has already subscribed to On Pasture. With your help, we’ll continue sending our great grazing information. (If you haven’t subscribed yet, here’s the link.)

I’m also grateful to the folks who have written when things haven’t worked quite as well as they should. Thanks for your patience as we’ve worked out glitches. You’ve helped us make things better for everyone.

Here’s what we’ve learned:

Once you’re subscribed, you need to login and that’s where most problems come up. We have a security system in place to prevent the 30,000 monthly hack attempts. We’ve set our system to tolerate a higher than usual number of failed login attempts before an automatic “lock out” occurs. That should allow you to double check yourself if you make a mistake during login.

If you try to login and it doesn’t work, check these things first:
– Make sure the “username” you type is the exact, correct, full email address you used when you subscribed;
– Make sure your password is exactly as you set it.
If you continue to have trouble, do send us an email and we’ll figure out what’s up and find a solution!

Finally, be safe and take good care of yourself. We may be socially distant, but we’re still together as a community!

Thanks for reading!
