They've been patching sections of road this week.

There is a solar system project due tomorrow.  Too bad nobody remembered until today.  My daughter made and painted the planets.

I tweaked the design a little bit, I think this is how the rest are going to appear.

I milled out some more wood designs today.

It was around 70 today, May  weather.  So I made the boys do a little yard work.  We went for a walk in the woods and the frogs were chirping.  It's going to snow tomorrow though.

I found a little forest of crocus popping up.

We had a downy woodpecker at the feeder today.

My daughter got new glasses.  Her eyes are bad enough doctors and nurses are shocked she can get around without glasses, yet I have to force her to wear them.  Hopefully she'll wear this new pair all the time.

It was hair cut night.  This is one of those things that has paid for itself countless times.

There were 8 deer frolicking in our field this morning.  One was an 8 point buck.

I've been working on this wood design.  I based it off the Sunbonnet Sue quilt patterns.  I found a liquid acrylic paint that works well for the colors.  I'm going to make some adjustments to the carving part yet, but this is close to what it will look like when I'm done.

I've been working on some new wood carving designs.  I have been wanting to make a celtic cross, and I think it turned out well.  It has one small mistake, but I've fixed that for the next one.

I picked my son up from school.  It was a near white-out at my house, but a few miles away at school the sun was shining.

It warmed up the last few days, but our little pond is still frozen.

I can see some daffodils coming.

We're having a couple nice days so I took a walk to the woods.

This is the basement under our family room.  It's going to get some drywall and electricity soon.

My husband turned some aluminum on his lathe and made these spirals.
