Oh Netty, please accept my condolences on the passing of your father. He certainly had an exceptional daughter (you) and another, too. He will be...
Anyone remember Lincoln Logs? I received a set when I was little, and immediately started to build a "pioneer village." The fancy doll my parents...
I went to our local dollar store to get some fall-themed decorations, and all they had was Christmas decorations! Honestly, Halloween candy all...

We planted garlic today and checked the bell peppers and tomatoes. Both are doing well, and we are leaving the bells to ripen to red. It's very...

You started out great, and kept improving! I especially like the 2017 cat face carving. Please let us see the owl when it is carved. You are right...
I feel so sheepish.
