Long overdue update
We have been neglecting our blog, but not for lack of things to write about. On the contrary, we’ve been very busy. We’ll try to write some catch-up posts soon on some/all of the following:
- Seattle Tilth backyard chicken coop tour — ideas to store away
- fence gates — 3 different designs by Matt work and look great
- “5 minute” (ha!) ceiling fan installation — 5 hour prep is as far as we got
- window shopping (i.e., shopping for windows) saga continues
- garden update — lots of delicious food to eat and share
- garage — additional storage & organizational miracle
- underground storage tank — 300 gallons of heating oil we don’t need
- back yard enjoyment — $5 grill, clothes line, visitors, cats & dogs
- cat training — slow going when your subject doesn’t care for treats
In the meantime, I love these tips from This Old House on saving money by using salvaged building materials and the benefits of hand tools over power tools.
