CJ#1 is one talented guy. He says his brother showed him how to do this fancy footwork. Bravo !
Just posted pickle pics on our community garden website. Thought you’d like to see them here too.
Many, many thanks to Amber (filmmaker), Jennifer (intrepid volunteer), and the kids. This is so cool!
Imagine if you could fit a whole world in the palm of your hand … all of terra firma in your grasp and ALIVE between your fingers. We think this is what it might look like … (if that world were populated by plastic frogs and dinosaurs).
Here’s a link to the instructions for building your own planet. http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2009/03/craft_project_mason_jar_terrar.html
Try it, we highly recommend it.

After a two week vacation, the Front Porch Library is back. We started library time with a sudden interest in board games. Stratego, Mousetrap and Scrabble came down off the shelf. We quickly invented new and better rules for all three games. Ms. Kary led a group sitting on the floor in making beaded key chains minus keys to hang decoratively from back packs (school starts tomorrow). Mikayla made tiny three dimensional houses out of construction paper—the other kids placed orders for houses in their favorite colors. And then we revisited GIANT BUBBLES, which ended with bubble beards and bubble Mohawks. The kids will be good and clean for the first day of school.
It was magical once we got the bubble solution working. Enjoy the pics …
