My family (adult brothers and sisters and their kids) are going to South Haven, Michigan where we're renting a house. I told them i'd teach them all how to make this basket. It's fun...time consuming...and a little irritating to do if you're not in the right frame of mind.
I wouldn't want to do it for a living, but it's fun to make a basket here and there.
This one is really simple. It's not sprayed yet with the stain...I just finished it this morning! It's my sample basket!
These goofball ducks are almost 2 wks old in this photo. The remaining ones are quite resilient. PEEP PEEP PEEP!
The post office called at 6:30 am to tell us we had a package. Well, they said we had chicks. They didn't know they were baby mallards. We got 10 total, but 2 have died already. The pic is red because of the warming light. I have to tell you these things are so fun! I'll get a better pic, but they were born with webbed feet and these huge bills. So fun to watch! So different from chickens to be sure! Just hope no more die!
This is the guy that took all the photos on the Huntington Catholic Field trip to Washington DC in March 2008. He was a camera tote'in fool...took over 500 pictures!

Last spring M came home with 2 little piglets. This was one of them. They're so cute when they're little, but as time goes by...they're pathetic. I never thought I'd be able to raise pigs (well I don't raise them...I stay afar away!). But they were cute!
