Picture Time!



As I am sure you can see, the animals definitely free range.  We built a pen for them, but as in New Goshen, fencing is more of a suggestion than an absolute.  That one picture with Hannah is her using the Wonder Washer.  I put clothes, hot water, and a bit of soap and crank it.  She likes cranking it.  It's just turning a handle.  Because of the hot water, I do the draining and filling for the washing and rinsing.

Thanks for sharing the pictures! The Wonder Washer doesn't look very big. You must have to wash constantly!

Wow,is that an empty can of Charles Chips next to Hannah? I grew up on those things!

(I also sent an e-mail about soaps. Lemme know if the store is back up.)

The wonder Wash actually holds quite a bit for its size. I'm rather surprised by how much laundry it does hold.

The empty can of Charles Chips was found on the property. (Along with a large metal milk can with the bottom rusted out.) The store is going to be closed down for several months so we can focus on building the house. I do still have a coupld of dozen bars in stock that I will be sending to you and a couple of other favorite customers.
