Yesterday we had -18°!!!! The greenhouse was not happy with
that temperature. Even with the propane heater running all night, the
greenhouse temp dropped to freezing. We lost some of our little plants, but it
looks like most of them will recover. This morning, we have a temperature
reading of -9°.
Last Sunday, a gifted group of musicians and singers came
out to put on a concert. It was so well done! with so many cool instruments
being played. May Buongiorne was invited to sing a short solo and take part in the whole choral ensemble, I was one very proud mum! :)
Jeremy Austin and
Becky Riche took Sis Virginia Buerge’s songs from the Psalms and set them
to music. I hope Jeremy recorded the music. Pictures are here:
Gri
Buongiorne made a video of the whole event. Ask her if you want a copy
of the Whitestone musical "Song of Degrees" presented at The Land. From
what I hear nobody else has made a video recording so this would be
your chance. I know she is working on slide shows for various events, so
put in your petition EARLY, before she gets bogged down with other
stuff. :)
A few days later, David and Donna Austin, who came from
Hoonah to play in the concert, came over to visit us. They put on our own
special concert! Pictures are here: https://www.facebook.com/
Some of us have been going up 3030 (latitude reading) a mountain/hill behind our backyard - and doggedly climbing up the trail which is melting. A good work out and an even better panoramic view of this area - depending on how high one climbs of course! Pictures of these climbing events are here

Jarred, Seth F., and Garth went somewhere to stack a house.
They will be gone for 7 – 10 days.
Ben went to Fairbanks
to attend another homeshow – a women’s show (I don’t know the
name). He did about the same as he did at the last show. He did receive a
bunch of wrought iron orders so that is good.
Our school open house is next Wednesday, the 16th.
We had a ladies’ meeting this past Wednesday to discuss changes in summer schedule and how to fill in all the slots. It takes about 20 ladies to cover it all, not sure we have that able bodies females any more...at least not YOUNG ones...haha
I better get ready for my day. You all have a great day!
