It’s been snowing since yesterday morning at about 9am. It’s supposed to stop some time tonight. Originally, it was forecast to stop this afternoon, but someone changed their mind. It’s all good. It’s not like it’s coming down hard or anything anymore. Last night, well, that’s a different story. It was coming down hard then. […]

Frozen Slush
This past few days of weather has snuck up on me. About two or three days ago, the temps were in the 30s. We received about four inches of snow overnight. The next day, it warmed up even more and rained for about twelve hours. Now, if you’ve ever experienced freshly fallen snow combined with […]
This is Going to be One Cold Winter
We woke up this morning and it was -11 degrees outside. That’s pretty cold. We’ve had to fill both the wood stove and the pellet stove for the past few nights before bed. Usually, we turn off the pellet stove and let the wood stove handle things, but with this cold, both are required. I […]
A New Dunhill Fir Artificial Christmas Tree & Some Snow
For some strange reason, I am so into the holiday spirit this year. It’s most likely because I’ve been planning it since February. Last year, we had such a good time shopping up in Kingfield and doing all sorts of things, such as cutting down our own Christmas tree. I don’t think I wanted last […]
My New President Lincoln Deep Woods After Shave
I’m sorry to have to do this to you. I really am. It’s just that I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t let this stuff sit in the box any longer out in our entryway. It was just resting there looking at me, every single time I walked into and out of the house. […]
Our 2017 Bountiful Garden Harvest
I was outside yesterday picking some yellow squash that was getting rather large, when I noticed the orange tops of a few carrots peeking through the surface of some nearby soil. I decided to grab the greens of those carrots and give a nice tug. Surprisingly, some fully grown carrots appeared in my hand, like […]
Building a Homemade Puzzle Table From Plywood & Lumber
There are some things you just can’t buy. Don’t mark my words here or anything, but I have yet to see a huge puzzle table that’s made out of a sheet of plywood out there for sale. Sure, I came across a few little tables that sit on people’s laps, but never one that measures […]
Backyard Update For July 2017
It’s been a pretty good summer so far. As far as the weather goes, things have been relatively cool. We had a few hot days with warm nights, but last night, I had to put a sweatshirt on. Those are definitely my kinds of nights. Anything over 60 degrees during the overnight makes me a […]
Our Beets Are Ready To Be Harvested From Our Backyard Garden
This is the first year I planted beets, so I’m thrilled with how nicely they’re growing. I had no idea it was so easy. Really, beets are almost as hands-off as Swiss chard and kale. Take a look at these beauties. The stems and leaves of beets look almost exactly like those of chard. As […]
My Very Shiny Homemade Iron Pipe Media Table
I know there are a lot of words in this post title, but I couldn’t leave any of them out. They’re all important. A while back, I began my search for media tables. I have this idea that I’m going to eventually purchase a nice Yamaha audio visual receiver, some speakers and a small television […]
