Beau got a nice sized bear in Canada. About 200# of meat in the fridge downstairs that we need to deal with in the next few days. (It was frozen).

He said, 'We need to have a talk about freezer space.' Uh, Yes. We. Do! Smoke your fish and get all of your random 'body parts' (hearts and livers) out of there that you're, 'saving for the dogs' and let's get on with life! Pretty sure my containers of bacon grease and a few random bags of Jalapeno peppers from last season for 'Cowboy Candy' are NOT the problem, LOL!

Boys!

Did I tell you my project for this Summer (for the County Fair in the Fall) is a Hudson Bay Baby Blanket? You know - for the 'sporty' baby in your life, LOL! I've got all the yarn, just waiting for Beau to head to the cabin after the 4th so I can spread out my work on the kitchen countertop. The Fair isn't until Labor Day Weekend. I've got plenty of time.

Hoping that at least ONE of the County Fair Judges is a 'Sporty Grandma!' ;)

You’ll see some things I have been working on soon :-) I like your fair project - more ribbons headed your way!

Well...perhaps the person who brought home 300 lbs of bear meat needs to get a dryer and dried berries and pound it into pemmican for the coming winter!

I had a wool Hudson's Bay blanket growing up. Loved the colored stipes!
