Another beautiful July day out here in the middle of the ocean. We woke to a dungeon of fog that was burned off by the sun mid-morning. This is a typical occurrence, indicative of tuna season!! From our perch up here on the hill, we do not see the ocean, but we can here boats all day. The perfect background noise for wild-Maine blueberry picking! We are onto our second freezer bag for the season, not including all we have eaten! The third load of laundry is about to go on the line. Nothing beats the smell of sun dried laundry. With the cost of electricity at $.35 per kilowatt hour......Line drying is the way to go for a family of 7, plus 1 with our visiting niece. Hanging laundry is a welcome chore for me. It guarantees me time out on my deck. I can feel the sun, the breeze if there is one. I can smell and hear the sounds of the ocean. I can also have a chat with my chickens.

Between loads I have managed to get some paperwork in order for the upcoming school year. It is time to submit test results, and letters of intent for the new home school year. Are we excited? You bet, we are going Waldorf this year. We are going to have fun. We are going to read, play music, get creative with art and handwork, get closer to nature, bake, and work on our math skills. We are going to do this together, on our time, at our pace.

More to come later, off to get that vitamin D while I get the laundry out..

Blessings to you.
