Our week

We are getting back into the swing of things around here, this week was heavy on projects.


First was the building of the Palace of Versailles

And, this is a picture that my Best Beloved took, no wonder he enjoys duck hunting, I would love to sit and look at the Alaska Range for a few hours. That is our dog, Emmy, fetching up a duck or maybe a goose, not sure. I have a plucked whole goose in my freezer, we are going to roast it up soon, or maybe to add to our Thanksgiving feast.

  2. Hi Melissa,

    Just popping in to say "HI". Looks like you had a more productive week than I did - lots of fun hands-on going on at your house. You are the second person I know now that is using Winter Promise this year. Fun stuff!


    Have a good weekend. You are probably warmer there than us here. It's 39 & rainy here - all day. ttfn.
