These Beauties Have Set Up Nests in Our Neighborhood Along the River

It is beyond my wildest dreams to see eagles flying behind our house on a daily basis. We live near the Clairton and Irving Works Steel Mill where Irvin and Claire have built their nests over the past few years. Their family has obviously grown because they are an everyday sight to behold. I believe... Sign in to see full entry.

A Thoughtful and Much Unexpected Gift from My Girls

I have always loved farms, the animals, and all of the implements that go with that way of life since the time that I was knee-high to a grasshopper. Maybe it is because my paternal grandparents owned an operated a farm on the Maryland/Delaware border until it burned down in January of 1968, taking... Sign in to see full entry.

Lots to Do Today and So Little Time to Do It

We are headed to the nursery to buy all of our flowers, herbs, veggies, potting soil, and a box of Miracle Grow to secure that they all make it to their greatest potential.

This Has Been a Productive Day and Now We Can Move Forward with Planting

I am crossing my fingers that there are no frosty nights in my immediate future, at least where my yard is concerned. I mowed the yard, pulled weeds, weed whacked, and made a flower and veggie list this morning. Mother's Day is the hump that we must get past for our "safe" growing zone where the...

Grant open the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at which Caroline Shawk Brooks displayed her sculpture of a woman’s face made out of butter.

People Make Fun of Me & I Don't Care; Its Up and I'm Happy About It

I am all about saving money when I can, and hanging clothes and sheets out to dry on the clothesline saves on our electric bill and gives my clothing a longer life. Plus I love the fresh smell of sunshine and air versus chemically induced dryer sheets. My clothesline is up and filled with today's... Sign in to see full entry.
