3 More Things We Learned...

about living in the Country. This just in:

1) Always, ALWAYS shake out your shoes before putting them on your feet. You never know who might have decided to use them as a home while they were sitting in the mud room.

2) Don't leave bowls of fruit perched temptingly on the kitchen table next to the picture window unless you want blue jays slamming themselves against the window in an attempt to taste those delectable organic nectarines.

And lastly,

3) If, when you plug a 50-year-old vacuum cleaner in, you see flames, sparks, or smoke, it's not a good idea to plug it in again to see if you will get the same effect.

  1. So wonderful, especially at a distance ;). I have such great memories of Nevada City, but conveniently forget the plumbing hassles of our Victorian, the amazing red mud, and the poison oak. Love love love hearing about your adventures, and really hope we can come visit sometime!
