New Page for Barn Again 2010

I added a page for the Barn Again 2010. You can see it to the left, under Pages. Home is the blog. I will also add a Page named "Our Story". Pages are static, meaning they do not change. Home (the Blog) changes as we post.

The Barn Again invite shows up very small, actually unreadable, on my tiny netbook screen. How does it look to you? Any suggestions as to how to make it readable? If you click on it, it makes the image larger. I can manually change things around using html to make it more readable, but it won't have a similar format, just similar content.

Any suggestions as to what you would like changed or added, like the blog colors?

Love,
Kristin

Mothers Day week-end at the farm

Hi All,

Lou and I plan to drive up to the farm after my last class on Thursday, May 6 - that is if all goes will with the routine colonoscopy I'm having on Wednesday, May 5. Anyone else able to join us?

We'll leave sometime on Sunday and celebrate mother's day with Peter and Taylor in Madison - probably dinner in Madison.

Look for Barn Again photos to be attached to this blog by me after I finish grading all of my papers and packing for our trip to the Czech Republich.

Love you all

MA

From Dennis, until he figures out how to post

We spent the weekend of April 17th with the Pages, Jacobsons, and Lambertys. The big event of the weekend was going into Phillips for breakfast and shopping at Northerm Mer. As usual the breakfast at the Phillips Cafe was good and cheap. The ladies spent a good part of the weekend chatting while playing Rummikub while Mary and the boys played some sheepshead. The amount of alcohol consumed for the weekend was about as much as we used to consume during the first hour on a Friday night after class at the "Library".

Mary Prohaska stopped over and wanted to know if we were planting potatoes in the same spot this year. Danny has seeded the eest half of our land and the west half of Kevins. The area is all tilled so it should be an easy plant this year. Mart spread some manure on the garden so with a little work that should be ready for the normal Memorial Days weekend planting.
Hi All

Just trying this sight to see if I can post something. I sent some of you an email stating that I had contacted John Marlenga regarding reshingling the house and out buildings at the farm. He responded and said the house need shingles, and he has some ideas. He will talk with us when he sees us at the farm.

Also, I order sweet corn seeds, and 20 asparagus plants a few days ago. I have seeds for pumpkins, squash, carrots, beets, and some flowers. Also have dill and parsley seeds.

Is anyone available to do the Sylvia/Peter Tennessen Scholarships on June 2nd. at 7pm. ?
