So the grass is planted in the front yard and the first of the bushes are in the ground. There are blackberries in the garden space and gooseberries on the side of the house. The gooseberries cost $5, the holes cost $50! Not bad?


This weekend is the Freeland Walleye Festival and the neighborhood has it's community wide garage sale. We decided to participate with the few things we had unpacked and wondered WHY we stored them. Made $30 the first day. Not bad when we normally would not do a garage sale.
Also discovered we are on the parade route. Just find a spot on our berm (the hill in the back yard) and enjoy the festivities. Then later we watched the fireworks from the driveway. Even Samuel liked it. Not too close for the noise to scar him and close enough he could see the flashes. What fun!
