Everyone knows I am crafty, but did you know Matt is too?

It seems every season is busy-in different ways-for those who embrace it anyway. In the spring, there is planting, clearing out the woods, cleaning, packing winter things away, logging; in the summer there is growing and harvesting, fruit and flower picking, canning and preserving, brush to burn; in the fall there is hunting and gathering, preserving, projects to prepare for winter, craft show season (for me), Christmas planning and preparing, splitting wood; and in winter there are fix it projects around the house, holidays, more hunting, snow plowing, and finally maple syrup to make. Matt is always busy-even when he doesn't have to be, he finds things to work on-projects to do, things to learn how to do, projects to try. This season is pretty busy for him so far...he has been making cider out of his ears. He is now working on making buckskins from deer hide-and has three other hides to do (so far!), not to mention he is soon going to start his projects for Christmas presents. Here are a few pictures of his recent activities...



Matt stitching up some holes...well, starting to. He ended up bending some of my sewing needles so he skipped it until he can get heavy duty ones.
