Like many others, my family and I have our family traditions that we do year after year after year. Since it is October, it is the time to visit the apple orchards. If we didn’t live where we do, we would want to live where these apple orchards are. Every year we go to the [...]

Well it is that time of year again. Time to get the old homeschool back in session. We started on Sept 1. I was very organized this year and had all of the books we needed purchased by the beginning of Aug. Starting school always goes much smoother when you have all the things you [...]

The garden has been interesting this summer. We got a freak snow storm over Memorial Day weekend. This pretty much did in all the blossoms on the strawberries and we got virtually nothing to harvest. Now the ever bearers are producing a few hear and there, but I am very disappointed as [...]

Here is another project! We had this one little skinny birch tree in the corner of the front yard. It had been run over by the snow plow 2 winters ago and almost snapped in half. We thought it was a gonner. However, it has lived barely. It hasn’t really grown, but it is alive [...]

Another thing that has been keeping me busy is mulching things. I am very lucky because the water district I work for brings in cedar and pine mulch from the tree trimmers. This mulch is free to anyone who lives in our water district. So here is what I got for free a couple weeks [...]
