Tuesday Tunes: Blowin’ in the Wind
“How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn’t see?”

My name is Tonya, and I grew up on a 300-acre farm in rural Virginia that has been in my family for over 100 years. After graduating from college, receiving my master’s degree in speech and language pathology, and living and working in a small city for six years, I decided to return to the place of my childhood. Here, in this rural area, on this patch of green, where for four generations my family has farmed, gardened, and lived, I, too wanted to be a part of this continuity. As a fourth generation farmgirl, I have many interests that not only include, but also go beyond the basics of farming, gardening, sheep and chicken-keeping. It is all of this and more that I plan on sharing in this blog.
I love this! One of my favorites

Great choice. I hope all the warmongers were listening and decide to put down their weapons.

I think the worst endemic in this world is turning the head and pretending not to see …. top down if people took their avoidance specs off and looked they would find it very hard to carry on business as usual.

One of my favorites. I love the way they sing this. It’s also a great message these days.
I love the way you take a stand without having to say a word, Tonya..:)

I think Peter, Paul, and Mary’s performance of this song is very moving–making the message more profound.
That is such a nice compliment. Thank you very much, George. 🙂

A very powerful song Tonya, with a strong message….if only people would take heed.

Oh, how I love this song! I have at least once used its words and message on my own blog, Tonya. I am of the age that I heard this rather regularly on the car radio. . . Such wonderful memories of folk songs!

I like the verse, “How many seas must a white dove sail before she can sleep in the sand?” I think of the five representative of Peace. ❤
