Spring Break

One of the most relaxed weeks of the year for the girls is the busiest one for Naomi! Bummer how that timing worked out, but Naomi made it over the registration hump and the girls had some time to mostly wrap up their reports for those adventures in Europe. They even got to spend some time with Grammie and Grampie. 

I went down with them on Thursday and spent the night. We helped our friends make some maple syrup on the way. They made it through another winter on their homestead - impressive how they keep hanging on and improving their situation. I also managed to pick up a new client, friends of my parents, and they have a big job for me. Two Morris chairs and a matching couch. 

Spent a few days getting the workshop cleaned up and organized. Continuing to collect more materials for the greenhouse and got the basic design digitalized. So helpful that the solar modeling is built in so the windows and overhangs can be appropriately sized. Picked up some new light fixtures yesterday to bring the kitchen a bit more up to speed. Installing them will be tricky. 

Hopefully my parents and the girls can make it up today without much trouble. In the middle of another snow storm! It started out as ice. Temps around freezing. Sheets of hail with lots of thunder and lightning. Haven't experienced that before. So strange. 

Amélie taught her sister how to use the snowblower.

The basic concept.

The pro in action.

Cleaned up and ready to go with the new sanding platforms!

It's been a while since we got to have a nice dinner out.

Fun on the ice.
