Sandman Cometh.

2 pics of the cabin floor being restored in Homer. Lots of elbow grease, and I'm glad they wear masks!

Bridge over River Kwai...

One of many wood projects in the yard...Better not slip off the icy wet boards in the winter! Also....Nate displays some silver salmon. Cooked on their Irish wood stove, I'm sure it was delicious.

Reinventing All Around!

The kids have the most awesome in-town place--yet wilderness abounds. Turkey, pheasant in their yard; creeks with several bridges in need of repair; goat pen, chicken house, barn, green house, shed, guest place-- and all filled to the brim with the last owners unwanted items. (See the TRASH page...)
Salvaging building materials, they are hard at work turning a house into a home! I am so impressed! I want to explore too...

Its Two at a Time Fish!

Last week's camping trip: fishing, berry-picking, 4-wheelering, drinking polar beer, visiting with friends and living in a "yurt"!

Gun Stocks

Cool Uncle Darrell (did I spell that right? Daryl? Yikes--brainlapse) gave Brian some coffeebean tree wood so he started some little gunstocks for a pistol. He said it was a very nice working wood--the little wormholes are added character!

Handmade Knife

Bri brought a little handmade kuhnifee back from Georgia--made from steel and parachute cord weaved in and out of holes. When I jokingly said I needed to shave my legs, he told me that it would--and it does. Seems pretty scary to keep knives so sharp; I think I've had to take Teg and Bail both to the hospital for stitches, Brig 3 times or more. It gives me the shivers!
More examples later...

Wamego Prom

I think I need to add a new inventor to the page! Last year Paula sketched out an idea for her prom dress and her and her mother created it last week. I really really appreciate those who are still willing to sew and create something time-consuming and elaborate! Kudos to them-it's becoming a lost art.
I took pics a few minutes ago and was reminiscing about all the dresses I had made...and am in the mood for another. I still love the wedding dress top from last summer that was created for Bailey...Anyway, here are Brigham and Paula on their way to Della Voce for supper. Whew--glad he picked a nice restaurant!
