Craft Sale At Underberg

Today Liz and I went off to the local church craft sale and poitjie pot competition.  Within the first 15 minutes the first wagon was sold and I have two confirmed orders for wagons as presents in December.  The sign did not do so well but I'll continue making them and see what happenes.  I sold one "Under 'OLD' management" and the guy who bought it was happy to pay R25-00 for it.  We'll see how it goes.

Oh, and we did not get any telephone orders. (For telephones or wagons)

Spring Has Sprung

We have had our first spring rain. 3mm!  Well spring has starting and the grass is growing.  The green is a welcome sight to us and the cows.  The problem with the lawn starts as well.  The grass grows faster than one can think.  So it will be back to pushing a noisy electric motor mower around the lawn thinkinrg that's it for two weeks.  Well, in two weeks we are back in the long grass in which the cats get lost.

Speaking of cats, our two. Ruby and Alli, seem to have a drug problem and we are trying to help them beat the odds and survive.  Actually they love it and it is a healthy drug problem.


This speaks for itself (Hey Alli!)

Eh?

I wish that my room had a floor;
  I don't so much care for a door;
    But this crawling around
    Without touching the ground
  Is getting to be quite a bore.
