Home Again!

Vacation's over! Jacob and I got home last night about 7:00, just in time for chores. :-)

We had a wonderful time up at the Bartlett's; both for the Appleseed, and the time we could spend with our friends. I will post some pictures for now, and will try to find time for a more detailed explanation later.

Here is a picture of our Appleseed Instructor, Alex.

This picture is looking downrange at all of the targets.

The firing line:

Jacob and I on the firing line:

It was fun! More later...

More Legos!

Hi all!

Just a quick post to show off my new Lego set, #4481 "Hailfire Droid."

I am not really a fan of star wars, but I bought this set because of the really huge wheels. Here are a couple of pictures.

Talk later,

Andrew

Getting ready to go.

Today, Jacob and I Are getting ready to go up to the appleseed shoot
at our friends, the Bartletts. We are planning on leaving tomorrow,
sometime after lunch. Check out www.appleseedinfo.org for more info.

I just heard on the radio that the Blue Angles are going to be in
the area this weekend! Too bad we have other plans. :-)

Better go,

Andrew B.

Remember the Appleseed Shoot coming up!

Hi,

Just wanted to get this information out to you all. This was copied from my good friend Jonathan's blog: http://jonathanjbartlett.blogspot.com/ If you haven't heard about the Appleseed Project, you should check out http://www.appleseedinfo.org/. Thanks!

"August 22-23, here at our farm. Don't forget to pre-register! Event info can be found at http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=7980.0.My email is not working so if any of you have tried to contact me in the past week, I didn't get it. You can comment on my blog and I will get your note when I sign in to blogger (I won't publish it if it's a personal note). "

August!

Where does time go? This summer has really been going fast!

Well, we have been keeping busy making hay, (You are probably thinking that's all we do, and you are close to right! :-) ) as well as doing chores, and trying to keep all of our equipment in working order. Thursday, we had to fix a bearing on one baler, a bearing holder on another baler, and the thermostat on our bi-directional tractor!

One of my current projects is working on making an informational/promotional DVD for Prairie Days, an annual event put on by our friends, the Dagleys. Here is a little trailer I put together, the DVD will be available for purchase later...




(After Lunch)

I guess I should finish this post, or it might sit here on my computer for a couple more hours...

Today, I got a Shubb 5th string capo for my Banjo. I had an interesting time mounting it on my banjo, as I hadn't ever done one before, but it worked out fine. I ordered a capo for the other strings as well, but it hasn't come yet... So for now I will have to continue using my Lego one. :)

Got to go,

Andrew B.
