I did get some things done outside today as well. Finally got my strawberry bed weeded and cleaned out. A few of the plants are blooming now, so we should have plenty of strawberries. I also got all the weeds out of the walking onion bed and they are growing really good and look nice. I used a shovel and turned the compost under in the section in front of the cellar wing wall and got it ready to plant when my herbs and flowers get big enough. That may take a while as I just got the seed started a few days ago. Rodger and Jason got the old pump house took down where my summer kitchen is going in and they went and got the lumber for that project as well. I might actually have an outside kitchen to can in this summer. I aint telling them but I am on the prowl for an air conditioner. It will be so nice to have the extra room to do all the canning and butchering and not have all the mess in the house. I have needed one of these kitchens for many years and now it is happening. Needless to say I am a happy camper.
Not much else happening so till next time, blessings from the McGuire homestead.

Yer babies are sooo cute! I cant wait to see yer summer kitchen..you rock Stelly!
What a cute pair of peepers! And glad to hear ya youngins are teamin' up to get ya kitchen built. I know one person can get things built (I know, I seen me do it!) but the job goes much faster generally with two or more workin' as a team. With some solar panels on top you could have your very own 'off grid' summer kitchen!
Hey ya'll, the lil babies are so cute and fun to watch hatch out. I really had a pretty good hatch rate this time.
