Firewood Days Pine cone days. Exploring days. School pictures days.
Dawn Till Dark Logging
That would be good name for the logging business. Because it would be quite accurate. So one day this week Frances and I went to the job and presided over the repair of one machine while Brad rode along with Lance in the other machine. Frances and I took a walk too. But mostly we… Continue reading Dawn Till Dark Logging
Back Home Again
We’re coming home to stay. No more packing our projects, clothing and food into the Jeep twice a week. We can stay at home. It’s time for fall work: raking, window washing, and for tucking in flower beds. It’s time for school routines and fall family parties.
Copper Falls 2011 and Other Rambles Through the Woods
Actually this was a purely random shot that I got when I asked them to please face the camera. Nobody was trying to be “cool” at all. Although I believe Lance was being a little obnoxious which you can see as plain as day.

Being a Mom
In reading Amy's thoughts about being a mommy to little ones 24/7 and all that goes with it, I got to thinking about my own stage of life. All my babies are gone and I would be one of those that Amy is referring to as "an older woman". So is my life easier than… Continue reading Being a Mom
Summer is Giving Way to Fall… and Other Ramblings
The green of the leaves and grasses is old and faded. I tend to mourn the passing away of summer even while relishing the arrival of cooler weather. Swimming and sweating are done. There’s school instead. It is time for canning and cleaning away the crop of cobwebs in all the ceiling corners.Speaking of spiders… Continue reading Summer is Giving Way to Fall… and Other Ramblings
Home Is Where You Hang Your Hat Part Two
Top of the china cabinet redo. I had time to clean at home in TheStoneHouse today. Besides playing around with this, I tried Amy's Pizza Sauce and now there are 13 cute little pint jars of beautiful sauce. (Pint jars are so amazingly tiny and quaint, after quarts and half gallons jars for years of… Continue reading Home Is Where You Hang Your Hat Part Two
