Playing in the snow in Wisconsin
When I knew we were moving to the country, I bought a nice used ATV. It came with a 60 inch snowblade. When we came back from a hunting trip to southern IL, we had 10 inches of snow in the driveway. It was my first time plowing snow with the ATV. What a blast. Here’s a little footage – not for the faint of download speed. Snow Blowing
What’s the weather like here???
I’ve recently received a personal weather station for Christmas. It does all sorts of cool things, but one thing it does is it let’s me port the information to the internet. If you go to http://www.jcartergroup.com/weather , you’ll see my own personal weather information for Roberts, WI. In particular, in my back yard. When I get a chance, I’ll stick it on my page here.
Moving to Wisconsin
We moved to Wisconsin and closed on our house May 31st.
It’s a dome house on 10 acres. We bought it from the original owners who built it themselves.
We’ve done a good bit of work on it, putting in flooring and a railing around the pool.
We just finished fixing up Maggie’s bedroom tonight.

So I haven’t posted in a while. I had to reconstruct my blog where I messed it up doing an upgrade. So here’s the first post in bringing it up to date.
A Homeschool Sleepover
It’s always interesting to see what kind of things homeschool kids come up with when they’re playing.
We had a couple of our homeschool friends over the other day to spend the night. We had a movie for them to watch, but they started playing and never looked back.
What they created was an intricate fort. Here are some pictures.

And the final
Pretty creative.
