THIS & THAT.
Some random photos from the past week.
We get milk from Amish neighbors, and we keep it cold in the creek.
Finding treasures on a walk.
Planting strawberries with the Smiths (and with little monkeys on our backs).
Opal and her dandelion bouquet.
Found along the creek's edge.
We planted our fig trees!
Ira's growing ducklings.
HITTING OUR CEILING.
The insulation is officially done, which means that at one point this past weekend, I was standing (or balancing) on a piece of old, oak barn wood ten feet above our floor, precariously stapling insulation into our ceiling. As wild as that might sound, in reality, it went really well. In fact, it's given us the confidence that we should be able to hang our own drywall as well (or at least it's given us the delusion that we can do so), which we had been considering paying someone to do. Drywall should begin this week, in fact. And as soon as that's in, and the stove pipe is up, we can finally install ourselves!- Jesse.
THE CUTEST TIME OF YEAR.
Lambing season is definitely one of my favorite times, and at Bugtussle Farm, that time is now! It is a joy to be neighbors to these animals, and if you'd like an overdose of cuteness for yourself, Cher has been posting about the new arrivals here.- Hannah.
