    (3.31.20) Optimism while heading upstream against the current

    Ever feel like you're fighting the current?  Destination unknown?  Two years ago I had just bought a house boat and was working on plans to bring it 100 miles upstream. I didn’t yet know where I was going to land because we hadn't purchased the island yet.  Lots of similarities to today’s uncertainty as all of our contracts for Easter and school programs and libraries are cancelled.  Somehow it worked out even better than I'd ever imagined and I trust that this time of social distancing will push us to try new outreach methods.  More time for farm chores and homework.  More time to fine-tune the business plan.  More time, period.  Thankful for your support as we plan to head 'upstream'

    (11.26.19) Rabbits drinking at Peacebunny Cottage.... and a few November updates

    This month was about a lot of things coming together... so much to be thankful for right now: all the support in achieving Eagle Scout, Great Grandma’s 100th birthday, new tools for the farm. What an amazing month. A fun final bonus track: Ever hear 30 rabbits drinking?  One of my favorite sounds while we're doing some cleaning and setting out the grass and hay bales.
