Happy Campers!!!

The new addition to the toy collection. We decided to buy a used camper for the first season at the lake, as opposed to building the first year and wishing we had put the cabin facing another direction.
This fine Uncle Henry's find works for me and Annie.

Johnny and Kim were on board to help break in the home away from home.

Thank God it came with the manuals!

Little, tiny, tiny kitchen.

Johnny found his favorite spot.

You flat landers have no appreciation for these flowers the way that we do.

JD is getting geared up.


The barn is open for business and the garden tilled.

Sid gave us a big pile of cow shit.

Meet Zoey!

I never talk about my job on my blog because you can get fired for that shit. That being said, I must tell you about my new co-worker, Joey. She is a three month old St. Bernard who has stolen my heart.
This is the story of Zoey. About a week ago my boss's husband had a terrible accident in the driveway of their home and lost a family pet. Small dog, big truck, very sad! To avoid such a terrible accident in the future, they got a very large Zoey, of the St. Bernard breed! Big dogs are the best!

More big doings!!!

Hey Dave, from your fishin' buddies, Bobby and Mad Max! It's a bummer when your truck won't start.
New trailer compliments of Uncle Henry's.


Matt and Mark worked hard this weekend on a new trailer floor. Bobby supervised and had a beer.

This trailer will not ever be hooked up to "Jeeper's."

It was 80 degrees on the deck today!

Annie and I baked in the sun.
Watched the last of the snow melt...

...and found some new growth!

More signs of Spring!

Now that we do not have to wade through 4 feet of snow, we are able to fill the bird feeders more often, and seeing more than turkeys at the feeders. Matt got this great shot this morning of a proud cardinal.

I took my new girl out for a drive and a wash today. I call her "Jeepers."
I love my new ride!

Live update from Carmel Maine

Thanks Jerry and Dave for our lucky bamboo. This is our complete spring garden: parsley, tomatoes, and some plant I bought at Lowe's.

It's hard to fly like an eagle, when you work with turkeys. The other day while trying to work from home, the turkeys arrived at the bird feeder again, Annie went crazy, and paced and barked the rest of the day.

It continues to snow. Our neighbors, Sid and Jackie, amaze me with their wood pile.

Our neighbors house is for sale. This four bedroom, two bath, two car garage home is for sale for $204,000. The benefits include: Matt and I as your neighbor. Only those with less than two children need apply, preferably children who are adults and have left home.

My hot new ride!

Last Saturday Matt and I went out for lunch and returned home with a brandy new 2008 Jeep Compass. I love this crossover SUV! It's more my size, much better on gas than that gas suckin Ford Explorer we had, four wheel drive for traveling thru 5 feet of snow, and just plain cute!
