Long time no write.....

I stayed busy
at my parents and was just not too interested in posting.....several people have gotten after me about that...one in particular knows who she is;)

This will just be about the things I did there.  I am in Florence now.

1) I made a big wood pile with some help from Ptarmigan and Dad.  In blistering heat.
2) I made two pairs of booties
3) I finished the quilt!!
4) I made some skirts for my great nieces.
5) I cleaned up a lot of brush, branches, bark and decaying pine needle glop from the wood splitting area.
6) I did other things like mow the lawn but there are no pictures of that stuff:)
7) I drove to Indiana.....and back of course.  We didn't stay for ever!
8) I saw the sewing machine I helped my niece to win;)  (no pic)


It doesn't show well but behind me is a small hill covered with branches from pine trees.  Been there a couple years and half rotting away.  You can see it a little better below.   I hauled it and more down back to compost....see the shot below.  90 plus everyday.  Dad ran the lever, I hefted logs.


From the upstairs window the day after I carted much brush down to the compost.

The day after Ptarmigan and I finished cutting and sawing, she saws, I don't.  Then I hauled off more brush and tons of bark.



Three pallets wide and two deep.  There is a bit more room for more, there is more to split!


Ready no matter the gender of whoever reproduces next!!!


Skirts for the great nieces.

Finally finished this quilt.  She was happy, slept under it the first few nights she had it even though it was so hot out:)

And gave away one I finished last summer....isn't she a doll?

Looking out my sisters kitchen window.

My parents and a niece:)

My sister and Stimpy.

My sister and her hubby with three of their girls.

My parents too!

Love, fondly, sincerely,
