Starting a project is always exciting, especially when the results can improve life so dramatically. The Nipomo sand is not something you want floating around your house all the time. And with animals who don’t wipe their feet when they come in, it gets everywhere. We’ll have to work on teaching pets to use doormats. The recent project at Julie’s home started with a sandy yard that wasn’t all that welcoming to play in. The image here displays the yard after sprinklers were put in and the ground was all leveled out. So it doesn’t quite show what it started like.
Life on this little farm has improved since then. The layer of sandy despair has decreased and no longer is sweeping a daily ritual (although we have more dirt to cover up out there). I’ve caught myself only a few times out rolling around on the grass with my belly out soaking up the sun . . . ok, that wasn’t really me, but Logan (the dog). We have enjoyed sitting amongst the chickens pondering life and just how a little change can create a whole new ball of energy within us. See the results of the dynamic trio (Julie, Lynnee and myself) below.
