In pursuit of green life and big sky. Wednesday, April 20, 2011. We are almost there.to the finish line on the house, that is. The bulk of our kitchen cabinets and countertop have now been installed. Our drywall is installed and finished. And our electrician, plumber, and septic installer have put us on their schedule for next available. But most notably, all financing has been secured for the complete finish. What a weight off my shoulders! As I mentioned in a previous post. For the poultry themselves, ...

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Tuesday, March 29, 2011. I grabbed a few quick minutes over the past couple weeks (okay, really. I had to grab a few hours to do the job well) and I planted some peas. And onions for us. I was already feeling behind on my spring planting. Since weve had such unseasonably warm March weather so far. Then a. Cold spell hit over the weekend reminding me that it really is just. March I now feel perfectly caught up. Yay! Weeds for me around my peas. Some heavy row cover fa...

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Sunday, July 11, 2010. We're good, tired but good.". And how's Mazzy doing with a new baby in the house? Oh, fine. She's taken to Jeff now and she's very good with the baby. Very gentle.". But how are you. Oh, good. Tired, but good.". These are the questions I get from nearly everyone these days. And those are my standard responses. Why does everyone ask almost the same questions? Why do I give the same standard responses? Crafting with Sydney or dancing with Mazzy?

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Thursday, May 12, 2011. As Ive written about many many (too many? Times, we are building a. House on our land while we reside in a house trailer adjacent to it.

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Thursday, April 15, 2010. How we love Spring. Just a few pictures this time. We are super busy around here, what with the sun shining every day. Really! It's the best Spring tonic ever, but it doesn't have any interest in sharing me with the computer. So I thought I'd update with a few pictures of all the outside stuff we've been doing that has kept me away. Jeff built me a small greenhouse. Out of old windows. Yay! Here is a view of our strawberry patch. Here is a c...

Heirloom Homestead: goodbye january!
http://heirloomhomestead.blogspot.com/2011/02/goodbye-january.html
In pursuit of green life and big sky. Monday, February 7, 2011. As I type this, my Macbook Time and Date tells me it is January 31st, 2011. I remember January of last year as my own private purgatory. I was waiting on a new baby, a new house, a new schedule, happiness, life to resume I guess. I felt the four walls of the. Trailer close their icy cold non-insulated grip around my neck while I pined out the window at the oppressive grey skies. Grey. Grey after day after grey after day. Jeff has been able t...

Heirloom Homestead: March 2010

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. I was talking with a friend the other day who was telling me about a recent dinner her family had spent with her husband's parents. She and her husband and their little baby had just come back from a long permaculture conference, and she was excited about what she'd experienced and learned during the conference. She was telling her in-laws about all the different things she'd like to try that she'd experienced there. She wanted to know.

In pursuit of green life and big sky. Saturday, January 15, 2011. I have a friend who takes these amazing portraits. Has an eye for setting up her shots with those very props that will appeal to your unique style. And seems to be able to capture that exact expression that defines the person she is photographing. We all take pictures, don't we? Explained once how these photo excursions grounded her and I found it to be one of the best explanations I'd heard. Shooting photos can instantly bring the min...
