new tent

I ended up getting a different tent than I first thought I would. The tent I got is bigger and lighter. I love it. I set it up last evening with Rossy's help and today did some more finishing touches to it.

I think you are right, the goat shed fulfilled a great and very necessary purpose for you, especially during mom's last years. That old goat shed holds so many memories..... for both of us. I hope it lasts forever. And I remember that journal and writing in it one cold winter day. I got some lovely and bittersweet pictures during that visit.

I think your new tent is great! May you have many wonderful times there and an abundance of naps.

That's the only bad thing about a tent - it won't be there in the winter like the goat shed was. None of the grandkids uses the old shed. I can't figure them out. I would have loved something like that as a kid. I go over and check it out sometimes still. It gets used by birds and animals (probably squirrels) at least.

I'm really liking it. Looking forward to this summer. It will be my lookout for the doings of the chickens and protected from mosquitoes.

I like how you have decorated your tent.

That chook was definitely asking, 'What are you doing in there?'. Lol :D

What is that structure near you that had chairs near it?

Thanks. I think I will get a comfy cushion for the lounge chair and then I will be all set. :-)

Yes!

That is the chicken coop. I have some chairs and a sun umbrella so we can sit near them. I know it sounds weird (to some people I'm sure) but we like to just sit there and watch the chickens some times. We take Andy with us.

That is a neat thing to do. I think more people should do it!

Yes, I'm glad I changed my mind about the "dark" tent. I don't think I would like lounging in it as much. I like to do other things than just sleep in the tent, like read and write.
