I SO want to post more about these fantastic challenges and info this very cool, hip homestead group are providing...and also how Fedco right here in Maine just gave Monsanto the big boot! They polled their customers and got the overwhelming response NOT to compromise... which means provide honest to goodness untainted-by-Monsanto seeds. And if you have absolutely no clue what on this big green beautiful earth I'm rambling on about, then just click on these images, read up, and then get your garden forks ready! We're off to Portland today, but I'll be back soon to ramble on more about all of this really good stuff! Have a great day!! : D Yesterday we went over to the Post farm for a birthday party picnic that I can't wait to fill you in on...with lots of great photos...that I don't have loaded yet because we've been 'Fall Cleaning' today. Yes, Truffles and Freckles, here, are sporting puffy pants...somewhat difficult to get on...but quite comfortable, I hear, once they are. First Truffles in her stylish puffy pants and in the brand new litter box (yes, our bunnies will use the litter box if it's there - lovely!)... Then Freckles assumes the pose! Gracie, our son's bunny, is thankfully relieved from most of these goings-ons. Our bun-buns are also enjoying their spacious new cage. Jump over to Green Pioneer for our new cage design as well as some of our friend's Cagey Ideas! The harvest is coming in, the trees are turning their gold and crimson shades, the Fall foliage is deepening into its most mellow and vibrant shades, and crackling fires are welcome warmth in the evenings... And now that you're thinking Fall foliage and harvest time, take a peek at this great Hobby Farm Home magazine I pounced upon recently! It is just packed with farmy homestead ideas and crafts. I'll be sharing much more from this great find! Can you believe it?! I'm so thrilled to have landed a cute little wooden picnic table at a yard sale this weekend...perfect for under The Climbing Tree (have we thought of a better name yet?)! So what do you think? What color other than the primer splattered with some questionable tan generic color should I paint this darlin' thing...??? Perhaps it should just be painted a basic woodsy brown or sage green that's not quite so glitzy...I don't know...decisions, decisions. And then there's the see-saw... Which could also be a perfect depiction of my life right now...or, better yet, the quandary of my life right now! It's the balancing act that must be performed in the last waning days of summer. Where oh where has this summer gone...??? I wanna know! How much more can we get done on the log home, rearrange the storage unit, fix the barn for the horse, get some more hay up, get the bunny cage expanded, and now prepare for a new homeschool year,...??? And ya know, there's much, much more besides! What can I say? Decisions, decisions!
So here's the recent update on our land and log home projects. The walls are continuing to go up and the brush and grass is continuing to come down! I've gotten all the brush and tall grass removed from under the new climbing tree...this tree needs a name! We have the "Thinking Rock" at home...for now I guess it'll just have to be "The Climbing Tree"... I can't describe to you the amount of brush, vines, and small trees... This is how tall this grass is...or was...in most of what I was traipsing through all week! Itchy, scratchy...gone! This grass was thoroughly demolished with this mumbo-jumbo weed-eatin' fightin' machine... As you can see...this machine is my new best friend...we are tight....we are totally bonded... Now pop on over to Green Pioneer to get 'the rest of the story'... This is the front of our property where I've spent the last couple of days clearing loads of limbs, vines, and brush...getting poked in the face and scratched on every square inch of my legs...and feeling muscles that I never even knew existed...but isn't it starting to look rather lovely...?? Park-like perhaps...???? |
