I wanted to share with you some images from our last camping adventure to New Denver, but first give you a quick update on what is happening with us. We have sold our house!!! It is wonderful news and now we are dealing with all things related to selling, relocating etc. We had the pleasure of seeing Harry's new school yesterday and meeting his lovely teacher. I think he will be very happy there. In all the chaos I am trying to finish my gift for Melanie's new baby due in October. I know I still have a lot of time but with the move and all that goes with that, I would feel better to complete it sooner rather than later. Kevin started his new job today. He was excited and ready to go, which is always great to see. I think this is going to be a wonderful fit for him. For me, my work is usually very busy with functions and weddings in September. Not the greatest of timing for me but I am sure it will all work out. Functions are so much fun to work with people generally in high spirits. Almost like we are all celebrating and fare welling the summer. Only another few weeks until we welcome the cooler months of Autumn....oh, to be cold again!
Oh, I also wanted to share with you a great book I found called "
The Backyard Homestead" by Carleen Madigan. It shows you how to produce all the food you need on just a quarter acre! Can you imagine if everyone lived this way, how much better off our world would be. I am so excited about spending time with this book over the winter and planning for next Summer.
But for now I leave you with the pictures as promised and I will keep you updated on our adventures in the coming weeks. Wish me luck!
