http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. The British Consulate in NYC is too far for me to be able to hear the gears turning up there, but I'm confident that they are! Today is the "earliest" date that I was given, so any day now. In the mean time.a photo or two to thank you for coming to check on me and my status. Just a reminder of life without snow for my friends over here in snowbound North America! Wednesday, January 12, 2011. So there's that and inventory my ...

Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Sunday, July 31, 2011. My parents' house.where I spent my teens. The back.and I didn't take any around front! Rachel reading in the hammock even in 100 degrees. Friday, July 15, 2011. Living in the Pennsylvania. I should think about changing the name of my blog. Or just bow out gracefully. These photos are sort of related to Lewis.tea and gardens. First the tea.made in a pitcher, not pot. Add hot water.that's the same as. Walk out my basement door.

http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2012/03/early-spring.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Sunday, March 25, 2012. My much unused blog.just a place to post pictures now! Here's what we have now. Ok, here's our garden (plot). Not much, but it is just a few items and what three people can eat. :). Still needs a fence dug in deep to keep out deer, rabbits, groundhogs. And it needs somethings planted. Homeschool on the Croft. March 26, 2012 at 4:05 AM. Love the cherry blossom - they are so lovely. We dont have them here (surprise, surprise!

Living on Lewis: February 2011
http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Saturday, February 26, 2011. It's Saturday morning and it is a calm, sunny day! There are lots of these days up here, too. I wonder if it is an even mix of calm/sunny, windy/sunny, windy/rainy. Anyway, here is what I see out my windows. Front door, the back end of the car I'm using this week. Poor clothesline has taken a beating! Thursday, February 24, 2011. And whoever redid the bathroom.THANKS! Will be in touch and thanks for all of your prayers for m...

Living on Lewis: October 2011
http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Thursday, October 27, 2011. In the hours I have free while seeking a full-time job, I decided it was time to relearn how to knit. My mother taught me when I was 12, but I haven't done it since. After I said I wasn't going to make sweaters or any kind of clothing, here's what I did first. A kimono style sweater for Ella. Not a very little girlish color, but it is what my sister-in-law likes. Tuesday, October 25, 2011. More of How We "Do" Fall. The signs ...

Living on Lewis: August 2011
http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Friday, August 26, 2011. First sign of autumn. When I woke up the other morning.and looked out the window. I saw three or four leaves that had turned. Love autumn, so I was excited to see this. I know, it means that I can't just open the door and step outside without a jacket or whatever, but I do love it. Okay, on to the Harris Tweed problem. I will be giving one or two of the shawls away, but the truth is I want to keep it all! The heat was intense...

Living on Lewis: March 2011
http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Thursday, March 31, 2011. The plan for today WAS to go to the south and see Harris today. Harris is the home of Harris Tweed (very fashionable just now as well as being very traditional). The land looks much different to Lewis. Heavy rain is forcing a postponement of the journey, though. Instead, I'll show you some of my kitchen.the parts that are different from most US kitchens. Are you still there? Not really exciting, but. Back to the outlets.eve...

Living on Lewis: Time Flies
http://livingonlewis.blogspot.com/2011/09/time-flies.html
Life on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.and home again. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. This album is tucked away in a closet. It is kept in a big plastic bag because it really is disintegrating. I have to put a cloth or paper (kitchen) towels down on surfaces because the cover is turning to dust. I started taking pictures of it because I think I have to get rid of it and find a new album for these folks. The pages have all come loose from the binding. Abbie and John Richman (great-greats). I try to imagine t...
