    I am going to add some speakers out in the barn, mounting them up pretty high in the corners – up and out of the way, and need to build out some decent speaker wires, so I got out the ole soldering iron. I got a 100′ spool of some decent wire and plan on…

    Dancing with Ms Rachel

    Oh this is Rori’s favorite show, or *one* of her favorite shows, Ms Rachel. She dances, sings, claps, stomps her feet, counts, and plays along with everything they do on the show. It is so cute and fun to watch as her little mind grows and learns from it. And as adults, well we listen,…

    Speaking of firewood…

    Our Firewood stacks are growing, slowly but surely. And, falling down. What the heck? I was trying to stack it 4′ tall to measure 1/2 cord per stack ( 4′ x 2′ x 8′ ) so two rows would be a full cord. Had the first stack built up to height and the next morning…
