Hibernation Ready



Part of fall means preparing for the winter. As much as I like winter and winter weather, I am no where near ready for it. But this weekend we spend a bit more time getting ready. The chicken coop got a coat of protective paint, the garden beds got cleaned and mulched, the garage got organized (well it got started), the toys from around the woods got collected. One of the kids commented that when we are inside we are canning, baking and freezing and when we are outside we are cleaning, collecting, preparing, that we knew just what it must feel like to be an animal getting ready for hibernation. I think we do.
