Painted Bedroom

We painted our white only bedroom with five colors. Here is a photo of one corner, showing all 5 colors - and the quilt. We also removed the T.V. out of our ceiling!

New Game

We spent this cold, first snow of the season cleaning the garage (mostly). We also have discovered Banana Scrabble. The evening we will visit Cindy and see how her house painting came out.

Homes in the Fort

Ack was in Fort Collins, where we lived for 10 or 11 years. Here is picture of the two houses we lived in most of the time. One on Mulberry (Far left photo, Erin was born there) and the other on Maple St, where we spent our last few years in CO. Found memories of the area. This was his third trip to CO in as many weeks, and is glad to be home in WI.

Spring Time!

Spring time has arrived in Madison. So has fishing. So, from our front yard its 4 large mouth bass, one Northern (a couple of more were on the line before I switched to wire leaders) and 2 too many Carp. And of course the underwater log that the bass hang out has three of my lures.

Spring is coming...

Yes, spring is coming. Friday March 20 at about 11:48 pm. There are signs around the house, like the ice breaking up on the lake shown in the picture (notice Anne's new camera.) Blackbirds are also moving into the marsh plot next to the house, and we saw three robins on a lawn.

Sunset on the lake

Margaret and Meg left their boat at our dock, so Anne and I took it out to have dinner on the lake and watch the sun set.

Ouch!

See if you can locate the bees nest in this movie loop. Ack found it -- by stepping in it while weeding!
