Weekend Canning and 10 Year Parole
Today at the Grove we held a canning workshop of fruits and veggies. We made blackberry jam and dilled garlic carrots. I’m excited to try them out 
We tasted some of the blackberry jam earlier and it was delicious.
We also had the John Deere dropped off today, so dad will be plowing up the soil tomorrow to get things ready for spring. Everything is really starting to feel like home here. His friend Buzz is going to help us build the back deck, and says they can finish it in a weekend. I also hope we get the wood-stove soon because mornings are chilly up here in Gettysburg.
All that is left is 2 trailers and my yellow bronco. The blue one I will be selling probably. The two trailers hold 6 cord of wood and a bunch of outside equipment. Then we’ll have everything back again.
A lot of people came up to visit today while I was at the Grove, which makes me sad that I missed them. Still not sure when to start having people up to see the place.
My cousin Jon’s murderer’s are up for parole next month, 10 years after his murder. My mom wants me to write a victim impact statement to be read during the parole hearing. I will have to work on that in the coming weeks.
