Progress???

This first picture is in Lewistown, Montana. This is not where we are going, but this warms springs is a beautiful picture and one that we keep in our heads to encourage us to carry on through the mud. By the way, I just checed the weather; Sardinia: rain--and Livingston: Sunshine. Wow...

These are the ducks trying to eat the flowers off of Lisa's skirt. She moved the hostas so that the foundation of the house could be worked on, but the ducks still wanted flowers! I'm afraid that one night, I slacked on my duck duties and did not put them away. George (black duck) got eaten. I feel terrible! They were my Easter present, and though we have been busy, it is no excuse to slack on these wonderful birds! Thomas (grey crested) has become a buddy of Lisa's and knocks on their camper door to ask for bread. He is very lonely, but I think they are going to get Thomas a girlfriend. I hope that they can be happy and safe!

This is the cellphone holder that I made for my Mom. It is the first bunny that I made, and otherwise I have made a owl and a cat. I don't have much time to do any of this stuff, but hopefully, once we are settled down, I will. I think they would be fun to sell, but I do have some quirks to work out. I have good ideas for bunnies, puppies, kittens, owls, and bats. Someday, SOME day!

Barrett regrets the day that we bought this trailer. It has been a pill! Of course, so has everything else. Luckily, the trailer no longer looks like this. Thanks to Mitch, Jon, and Poppy, it has been rewelded back to better than if was made in the first place. It is still a freak of a trailer and pulls like an 8-legged mule, has a bend axel, and Barrett still hates it. But it LOOKS pretty nice now! Once we get to Montana, it will probably be turned into my kitchen, with the stovepipe running right out of the top vent! After that, we may never take it anywhere far away again! We will probably sell it and get something else. Peaches is asking to be throwin if for free with it, too!

Anyway, we are SO CLOSE it is painful, but Barrett has discovered some drive shaft trouble in the truck. Well...

We are almost on our way! AND SUPER EXCITED!
