Winnings & Wildlife

Last weekend I got an email that I had won a prize from the Primitive Post Giveaway!  YEA!  My package arrived yesterday and just look at what was inside...  The cutest Prim Bunny and a Bunch of Carrots, both of my prizes are from Bessie Mae's...

Thank you Kate for hosting such a wonderful giveaway and Thank You Kate's hubby for drawing MY name!

Are you wondering about the title of my post?  Winnings and Wildlife...  well, we have the winnings covered.

Yesterday was Wildlife day here, on the way to school Maygan and her Dad had a coyote run across the road in front of them.  On the way home last evening, Maygan and I seen a porcupine in the road and THEN...

at 12:30 am this morning I heard a ruckus on the porch and there was a bear helping himself to the remainder of my birdseed!  I wasn't able to get a picture of last night's bear, it was way to dark but here is one that did the same darn thing a couple of summers ago...

He's looking through the screen door which was the only barrier between him and our living room!  This guy made out like a bandit, last night's bear only got a little thistle seed that was leftover...  The bear in the picture was a little tooo bold, my hubby kept chasing him away but he'd come right back, bound and determined to clean up his mess.

Blessings....

All Decorated.......... & other news

Here is what I did with my Dry Sink.  My solution for a backer board (maybe temporary) is one of my feedsacks...

I'm not really digging the cheesecloth curtain, I just pinned it up there to see what it looked like.  I might change my mind though...

This weekend is a "state holiday" here in PA...  Saturday is opening day of Trout Season.  People come out in hoards for opening day, you'll see streams lined with cars, campers and people.  Some of them stake claims on their camping spots a week or more ahead of time.  We will be heading to our camp this weekend, a family tradition.  So....., I am trying to get what seems like 2 weeks worth of work done by Friday and I haven't even got my fishing license yet, LOL.  Wish me luck!

Blessings my friends,
