Unbelievable find in a penny bank

I have had this bank since Bob passed away four years ago. It was in his office. I was completely surprised and touched by the message I found inside.

There was one wheat penny, so only one collectible coin. Still, the money wasn’t important. It was the message that touched my heart.

Bob continues to surprise me.

I will love and miss you forever.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Cautiously, cats think twice before coming through the cat door

Stella waits patiently for the cat/s to come downstairs.

None of my cats were ready to rush out the little door, though they often exited as if the house was on fire. This afternoon was different. Only Spitz risked it, though he soon rejoined his brothers on the stairs.

After Stella and I moved away from the stairway, all three cats joined us in the kitchen. Car-E is currently trying to type for me.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Working at cleaning off rust

Rust in well water is a part of life in this area of Wisconsin, and so is freezing weather.

I had taped some of the sink before dripping water during below-zero temperatures.

Now I’m trying to clean off the rust that coated the sink.

Next time I’ll use more packing tape if I run water at night.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Ground-feeding birds

My camera is pointed out my kitchen window. I have to hold still so I don’t scare the birds. More came as I videoed.

I’m happy I could help the birds. Besides assorted seeds, I added bread crumbs.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
