Hi everyone!
I've been wanting to post for so long. We've been in our new house about 1.5 yrs now. We still have a garage full of boxes to go through, but at least the house is unpacked. Last year was super busy with all the work we did inside and out. We were able to get a vegetable garden in, and I getting ready again for that now. The garlic is coming up, the greenhouse is open, the bulbs are coming up and the seed are under lights, I am soooooo excited!
I haven't canned in a long time and I can't wait to do it again. We turned a spare bedroom into a walk in pantry and that is on it's way to getting stocked well.
We have bald eagles and hawks and coyotes, and amazing mountain views, I am so in love with my new home.
We've also welcomed a second grandchild, Christian. There's so many things to be grateful for.
I sure hope we can all get back to some normalcy this year.
I will post pics soon. Happy Spring!

Hi Connie -
Good to hear from you. I have been away from the forum for quite a while also and just came back on a few weeks ago. Life sure does get in the way sometimes, doesn't it? I hope you continue to enjoy your new home in Hoosick Falls. I go through Hoosic when I visit family and friends in Vermont.

Connie, so glad you stopped by and gave us an update. Congratulations on your new home. We have been in our home for over 2 years and I still have unpacked boxes lol! I think it’s a normal thing. Also congratulations on your second grandchild. I look forward to seeing your photos.

Hi Krista, I never thought unpacking would take so long, LOL. I'm going to take my time going through the garage and tossing and reorganzing.

Luanne, I just love Hoosick Falls. Time sure does pass quick. Denise I was born in Saratoga Springs, so I feel like I'm home. I do have some family here that stayed. To leave long island was the BEST thing for me, I just had my endoscopy and my ulcers are gone! I'm so happy here. I have many pics and will post some soon.
Happy Spring to everyone!!

Saratoga Springs! I'm from Ballston Spa. Well Galway actually, but we had a Ballston Spa address. I love it up there! We get home for visits but not as often as I would like.

Hi Connie, welcome back and congratulations on your new home and new grand baby. We just moved in our new home a week ago and we still have boxes everywhere, the house, garage and barn. The weather is so pretty here now I just want to be out gardening.
But, it will get finished one day right?
Enjoy and have fun.
Big Hugs,
Debbie
