Shed, Weather & Great-Grandmas

Gisela B-H* | April 5, 2009

We spent the weekend cleaning out the shed and getting rid a lot of things that we couldn’t get rid of in our initial clean due to sentimental reason.   This was the first stage to getting a new shed and tearing down our current red and white metal shed.   For safety and security reasons I [...]

Union Hill Cemetery Update

Gisela B-H* | March 25, 2009

Knowing that we couldn’t get the massive clean up done ourselves, we hired Shumakers Landscaping.  They are charging us $1200 to clean up the brush, cut down the knee high grass, cut down a tall dead tree, cut all the small trees growing, and burn the huge pile of debris that they made from pulling out and [...]

No Planting of Crops, Yet.

Gisela B-H* | June 10, 2008

It a unbelievable thing but it is true.  We do not have our soybeans planted, yet.  The weather is has given us too much rain and our ground has been too wet to till and plant.  There is only one field in the local area, that we known about, that actually has crops in…corn.  The [...]

Lilac Blossoms

Gisela B-H* | April 22, 2008

Our three lilac bushes are blooming! Oh, we love the smell of lilacs around here. We even have a Yankee candle candle called Lilac Blossoms that we light when our bushes are not in bloom. The candle smells pretty close to an actual Lilac blossom. The candle had fooled a few [...]
