Wow! We took the Travel Trailer out for a spin to celebrate our anniversary. So many things worked so well, but there are a few things that need tweaking. Loved the new coffee pot that took it’s place on it’s bedroom coffee/wine bar and kept the kitchen counter clean. That beautiful coffee pot just sings. […]
So much is happening, I can tell that it’s Spring! Definitely a lot more farm related projects in the spring! The ducks and chicks have sure grown! As a matter of fact, the ducks have grown so much it has prompted us to think about what is next. So I bought the ducks as I […]
Life is grand! There is not a single other place I would rather quarantine than on our little farm. Currently having a creative project in remodeling our rv is amazing. I love the fireplace area. It is one of my favorite places. Just sitting on the sofa/bed and watching the flames flicker is just so […]
Life is crazy with the Coronavirus going on. We are now in a 30 day shelter in place quarantine. John was required to quit working at the school building as a teacher and teach from home now. Today he was setting up new videos for the kids including one I got to be the camera […]

As you saw on my last post, we bought a fixer upper camper, and as the cold, wet, weather has allowed, we have made some progress. The first thing to do of course, is to make sure it is weatherproof, look for all causes of leaks and fix them. We found two holes in the […]
The opening of my booth has been pushed back another month. It has been so cold and wet that it is just not very enticing to go out in the workshop for long periods of time. So, we have a new project. A small Prowler Lynx travel trailer. Bought as a fixer upper of […]
The dangers of being an upcycler. . .So my husband is a teacher and we go to his student football games in support (in addition to dance, choir, etc.) So our old football stadium seats wore out in non-fixable places and we got some new ones (after about 10 years). Immediately, I missed the pockets […]
