staked

I was so excited this past weekend to discover that the builder had staked the entrance to the driveway.  This is not only progress, but it brings with it VERY good news.  Bill, the builder,  said he anticipates getting the health department permit today, the driveway permit Wednesday and the building permit by the end of this week and I think then, I will get an actual address assigned for this property.  Once these things happen, weather permitting, the builder will be ready to have the basement dug.


WOOT X 1000!  [Imagine a slightly dumpy middle age woman dancing a jig while similtaneously doing the wave and that would cover my degree of excitement.]

Yesterday,  one of the members at congregation #1 shared news of her new flock of chickens.  She subscribes to a cool magazine called Mary Janes Farm and a couple of years ago she passed along a couple of copies.  I went to their web site this morning and ordered my own subscription and signed onto one of their forums.  My user name is dirtangel (just in case you see me there).  Check out their web site and the stuff they do to not only support sustainable ag and organic farming, but the focus of their entire organization is women farmers.  http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/
