I've spent a good many hours in the workshop working on my projects. This weekend I tackled something my wife wanted me to do.

Our all-electric house may be getting its first propane-powered appliance. That could be the foot in the door.

Its pretty shocking when things I bought in March and April cost more just two or three months later. Inflation is here, and its far more than 4 or 5 percent.

With the weather improving and the sun shining again, we embark on a host of gardening and other outdoor activities

We put some miles on the truck and some wind in our hair as we cruised the back roads in search of beekeeping equipment.

As a blast of cold weather rolls Eastward, we fall back onto old winter habits and prep for possible snow fall.

The weather cannot make up its mind: Warm one day, chilly the next. We get some work done but keep the fire lit at night for warmth.

More sunny weather allowed us to make substantial progress on our chicken coop yesterday. We expect to pick up with roofing late next week.

The yellow blooms of forsythia in the valley below us herald the coming of spring, but our mountain locations keeps it at bay.

When the fall warms up, we call it Indian Summer. What's it called when we get a preview of spring? I call it time to get a jump on outside projects.
