This column from 1990 shows how two boys, Russ 10 and Rob almost 15, shared a bedroom.
It wasn’t always easy.
I loved coming across this story about my boys. It says a lot about them.
They survived childhood. Now there aren’t any dirty sock issues as they are grown men and good friends.
Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A tiny clip of the granddaughter Arianna’s seventh-grade choir.
This video streaming from her school made me smile.
I’m so happy to be connected to the internet even if it’s via DSL.
It helps being able to reach out to the outside world.
I look to future live streaming events and more smiles.
Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

If a grandmother, like me, can’t get to the seventh-grade concert, there are other ways to be there. Thanks to the orchestra director, this concert was live-streamed.
My two grandchildren, Eli and Arianna play violas. They are in the second row.
When this closeup was taken I could finally find them. Eli is to the left of the still photo and Arianna is to the right.
I can’t wait to see another live stream from any of my grandchildren.
This first one was extra-special.
I’m glad to be connected to the Internet and my family.
Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm

Here’s a special handmade gift I received.
If you are looking for something handmade by a Wisconsin artist, I can recommend this. The large flowers are made of wood! Sectionals can be found on sale in Bria Bella.
Check out Bria Bella on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/briabellaco/ and the internet, https://www.briabellaco.com/.
Just thought I’d share this today.
Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

Sometime a family can have too many turkeys.
In this video I tell of the time we accidentally got hundreds of turkey chicks. It was all because my dad didn’t want to see them destroyed when the sender and receiver of the live chicks wouldn’t take them at the airport. As a surprise, Dad brought them home. Wow, that sure was an interesting summer.
Dad worked at United Airlines and this was one of most exciting things he ever brought home–it’s a good thing he never caught the monkey that got loose in the rafters of the building.
I’ve never raised turkeys since. From this experience I’ve found them to be extremely stupid birds.
Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.
