Another catch up blog...

Finally more rain and a cool down, how nice it is to enjoy this cool cloudy morning.

Last week a thunder shower went through while I was on the computer.  Got a good scare...lightning hit very, and I mean VERY close by...computer went down and out!  Started computer back up and tried to connect to Internet again...no can do!  Modem got fried!  Along with that, our one month old TV and our DirectTV was shot!  This makes three times in 12 years we've suffered lightning damage!

All is well now, all the repairs have been made and we are back and running.

Last weekend we spent at Ionia Recreation Area camping with most of our family.  Three of the four kids and their kids were there.  Great time and good food was had by all.  Wonderful weather and a nice park.  A little crowded for Greg and I, but really not a bad place to spend the weekend.  First time we have ever hooked our camper up to electric service!  We always go rustic camping.
Cousins at camp.

Time around the campfire.



  Now it's time to make final preparations for Shiawassee Fair.  Daniella was here on Monday and Tuesday and has all her still projects that can be done here all done.  She began working on her stall sign and will have to finish it next Thursday when she comes.  She will also have four goats to clip, that will be a really big job for her to do!

Yesterday, Wednesday, I sold seven doelings.  All that are left now are four, Daniella's goat Clover is one of them.  She will be up for sale as well, during fair or right after.  I still have four milkers for sale as well.  No calls on them so far.

Still managing to eat light and loose weight.  Even while camping I lost one pound!  It helps to have alot of fresh produce available.  My garden isn't doing any right now, but Chita gets veggies from her work and shares them with us.  Had Eggplant Parmesan on Tuesday night, wonderful and Chicken Stir fry last night, yummy good!

Time to roll along...Onward and Upward.
