My silent fireworks

Last night, they lit up my backyard in the late evening.

It warmed my heart watching them change colors.

In this video, I also show some of my other solar lights.

I’m a big fan of solar lights. Stella’s dog fence has two solar motion-detection lights that brighten the yard for us at night.

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

Quiet fireworks

I love solar garden lights and yesterday I decided to buy some that represent fireworks to me. They arrived around 5:30 am!!!

They came in three parts and were easy to assemble. As soon as I turned them on, they started to light up. After a day in the sun, they should light the night for ten hours.

In the photo, I took of myself with the box and light is my cat Barn-E. He wanted to play with the dangling fibers–oh that cat! The lights will be put in my yard where Barn-E doesn’t go.

All I can say is these lights made me happy. (It was unreal that Amazon delivered them so early today.)

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

The Van Gogh experience

Read about Vincent Van Gogh and then witness the experience in this large room–35 minutes video.

I went with my daughter Rebecca. We were impressed by the experience. The floor, walls, and posts were all used to display Vincent’s art. It was amazing. I could have sat there all day and watched it over and over.

Stary night mesmerized the watchers.
See the size of a part of the display.

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

Furry library friends

You’ll find more than books in libraries. These two guinea pigs live at the Muehl Public Library in Seymour, Wisconsin.

There’s a place where young library patrons can climb high enough to see Rolo and Fable.

They were nice and didn’t hide so I could make this video.

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

Terro Liquid Ant Baits — review

If ants invade your kitchen, this product will help. It really works.

Just make sure you put it where children and pets can’t get at this bait!

One day later, almost all the ants have disappeared from my kitchen.

If the ants stayed outside where they belonged, I would not kill them. But I had to stop this invasion and it worked.

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