Bean Seeds for Sale - Noah's First Sole Proprietorship

Noah came to me this afternoon and said he had an idea for a business. He wanted to set up a table out front and sell "bean seeds". I said, "Noah, I'm not sure if anyone would want to buy bean seeds at this time of year. People usually plant their seeds in the springtime." He listened to my concern and asked if he could try it anyway. He had put 4 beans in a plastic bag several days ago and had a display of sprouted beans to show his customers so they would know for sure that his "bean seeds" grow. He made his sign, set up his table and waited for the customers to pour in. He was out there for about an hour before the first neighbor came over. Noah had decided, by this time, that he needed a little variety in his selection, so he was also offering some of his original artwork for $1 each. Judy bought 1 drawing and 2 packs of beans! Another neighbor stopped by a little later and bought 2 more packs of beans for $1 and told Noah to keep the change. So, Noah made $2.20 today all by himself! He's such a little entreprenuer!

Neighborhood Deer

This was the first time in 10 years that I've seen a deer in our neighborhood! SO exciting!!!

Red Feather Lakes

We already delivered the snowmaking system. Now, we're getting ready to go on the paddle boat.

Goldie went with us; you can see the top of her head in this picture. She was watching for the fish and could not figure out why we kept throwing all that perfectly good dog food into the lake!
