in Italy



We are looking at affordable vacations. I found a private house in Tuscany. It is 10 hours south of us. It has 4 bedrooms and a garden with it's own private pool. They even allow dogs. The house is about one hour south of Florence and not far from these waterfalls. I've always wanted to go to Terme di Saturnia. It has hot mineral waters. I'm sure it sinks but I bet it makes you feel like a million bucks after you sit there for an hour! We were looking at Garmisch too. I love to hike in Garmisch at the foot of the German alps. Juergen wanted to try something new...and warm. We had 10 days of rain the last time we were in Garmisch. We want to drive and keep the cost down. I really want to get our house painted this year.

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
