Crystal Lake On May Day



















We spent the weekend up at Crystal Lake, mowing our fields. The lake was the fullest I've ever seen it! No wonder, with all the rain we've been having. Water was running over the spillway. Several trees were down from the storm that we had last week. Frogs were singing at night and birds were singing in the morning. It doesn't get any better than that.

4. The bog. It sits back in the woods, near the house site. It dries up in the summer.
5. Fire for food, warmth and light.
6. LED nightlights.

Until next time.....
