Hags house

This photo was taken by a remote camera that my husband built from plans from the internet. We found the plans at www.hagshouse.com this is a very helpful online community of people who are interested not only in remote camera building but in the outdoors as well. Check out the forum.

Mike's paintings

This is a link to my Brother-in-law Mike's paintings that he has for sale on a website called artist rising.comhttp://www.artistrising.com/shop/artist/38813/Michael-Forzato.htm These painting are remarkable because he is confined to a whelchair and can only move his left arm a little bit! He did these paintings using a special device that is fitted to his left arm.

I hope you have enjoyed looking at his work!

Hidden Creek Winery

We made our first trip to a winery today. We enjoyed the tasting (and buying) at Hidden Creek Winery http://www.hiddencreekwines.com/index.html near Laceyville PA. Ruth and Russ Leichliter were great hosts and made the experience worthwhile for everyone in our group. Ruth also made our kids feel right at home! Jack is looking forward to returning again. We tasted many wines and came home with three. Our favorites were the Strawberry, the Dragonfly, and the Peach. We enjoyed sampling the others also. The wineries signature wine PA Bluestone was very unique. It is blue in color and is a sweet Catawba flavor.

NWTF

In my last post I mentioned my affiliation with the National Wild Turkey Federation. They are a great organization dedicated to the preservation of turkey habitat, hunting and heritage. They also have great programs for kids, women and disabled sportsman. This is a link to their website http://www.nwtf.com/ check it out .

TGIF

Hello and welcome to the weekend!! Here we are looking forward to a blissful 2 days with no work. What do the days hold in store for us? How about spelling words, science projects, haircuts ands grocery shopping! Monday is looking pretty good. Just kidding. I'm sure we will fit some fun in there sometime this weekend.

I have been hard at work helping to plan the National Wild Turkey Federation annual banquet. The banquet will be held on May 10th at 5pm at the Montrose VFW. The NWTF is a great organization which has many wonderful programs. Not only is their focus on Turkey and Turkey hunting and habitat, but they also have kids, womens and disabled sportsman programs as well. Currently, the NWTF is trying to help set up an Archery in the Schools proram at Lathrop Street. Hopefully, this program , which has been successful at Choconut, will have as much success at Lathrop Street. So contact me if you would be interested in attending the banquet. There will be lots of good food, raffles, auctions and other giveaways. It promises to be a memorable evening!
