Always A Day Late

See, I should have started writing this blog again when I first bought the farm, and kept it updated as I went. Now I'm 3 months behind playing catch up. That seems to be the story of my life!

I have lived here since May 1st, but that's not entirely true because I also spent a month in China, which then allowed the groundhogs and other critters to take over the unattended yard.

Here is a smattering of critters found hanging out here at the farm:

The Farm

So, the farm was built in 1890. Last owners lived here since 1978. The place is in some serious need of TLC, mostly cosmetic. Since I'm not made of money, most of this work will fall to me. Good thing I like painting. Here are a few pictures of the farm.

I Bought The Farm!!

More than 2 years later and here I am. I've been busy, sue me. Anyway, a few months ago I bought a FARM. Yes, a farm. What was left of an old dairy. And I am now house poor and have more repair projects than money or time. Well, the good news is that I am as happy as a pig in a mud puddle. I've decided I should document my restoration (cough, cough) of this old place. I've just gotten started, but it needs quite a bit of TLC. So, bear with me while I catch you up to speed.
