Just a note to let readers know that I will continue to post photos of our shop and the items that make their way into it on flickr.

It's a new year folks. This blog has slowed to a painful crawl. I'm going to make this the last post.

When I started this blog it was about the journey here; about two city dwellers navigating their way through a new space and finding a way to make it work. And here we are, we own a home and started a quirky business and built a teeny tiny A-frame and we were able to do so coming here with NOTHING. No savings, no down payments...it's kinda magical really. Will we stay? Who knows. It certainly hasn't been easy, but it has been rewarding.

No regrets.

Our newest ad in the Bruno newsletter got accidentally cropped so that it reads "hop locally this holiday season" instead of "shop locally..."!.

The other night someone tried to break into the new a-frame shed that Tyler built us. There's paint missing where they tried to kick it in, the door jamb is a mess.

Highly disappointing.

We attended the Thanksgiving Cabaret at the Bruno Community Hall last night. It was sponsored by the Bruno Axemen with live music provided by The Barley Boys.

No, we didn't dance.

I did a live interview about All Citizens today on CBC radio's Blue Sky. The "live" part of the equation made me very nervous but I seem to have survived and am thankful for their support.
