A quick road trip.........

Today we went to Nova Scotia to pick up Pete's new wheels. He bought a '91 VW Jetta GTX. His first car ever.

And here it is. We had to go all the way to the Annapolis Valley. Almost in Upper Clements. Klaas & Feije and Brian & Stanley came too.
The one thing it really needs yet though is an engine. It has a Flinstone drive in it right now. Down the road it will probably be upgraded to a 16 valve, lots of hp engine. Right Pete?I think Pete is the happiest guy in Rustico right now.
It is a good feeling to be able to make someone happy......And for the rest? Home sweet home. Oost,West, thuis best!

Carrots are done........

Well, after a long battle with the weather, we are done with the carrots. The last ones staid in the ground because they had too much wireworm.
So now it is cleaning equipment, and greasing and oiling. And then on Monday we can park everything in the shed and hook unto the plows. The outside work is mostly done, so let it snow. Just a short one for now. I'm going to bring the kids in bed.
Talk to you later.......

Just for old time sake, here are a few more pictures.....

On the left we are digging carrots at the 55 acres, such nice scenery. It was a Kodak moment.. And on the right is a picture of the yard. Marten had trouble keeping up and wanted a little stockpile in the yard. Looks like he got lots.....
