Making do...

Brad and I are really getting tired of all the plants in the house,So we figured it was time to start hardening them off. We don't have a greenhouse yet so we built this makeshift 50ft coldframe for around $5.00. We gathered some small willow branches from around the pond for the hoops. It works perfectly! We put a couple of trays of plants in for the whole day to make sure they would be ok before we put them all out. Someday I dream/hope to have a big greenhouse and hoophouses. That would make everything easier!

Nothing better than dried on the line...

Oh I was so excited to be able to wash and hang some of my bedding out on the line today! I had to make a makeshift clothesline on the cherry tree until I can get some posts put in to make a permanent one. There is nothing better than line dried sheets. There is something about them that makes me sleep so good and soundly. I love the crispness and the fresh air smell. I know I will get a really good nights sleep tonight!
