There are times in life when there are no words to express our feelings. In those moments, sometimes a picture says what we simply can’t. It conveys our deepest gratitude and our greatest sympathies. Thank you for your great sacrifice. You will not be forgotten.

It’s commonly understood that we often feel better after working in our gardens, but did you know there’s possibly a scientific reason behind at least part of that reduction in stress?

Don’t believe what Pinterest says about “menswear-inspired” interiors. It’s not all about black and other heavy, dark colors. The key to making it work in ANY space is adding the feminine touches to balance the masculine.

Every now and again we stumble on a tool that really seems to live up to the promise of saving time and just doing a better job than its predecessors. These automatic wire strippers are definitely something you should have in your toolbox!

This is one of those “business” segments. But it’s important! We’re happy to finally be opening up again on Saturdays and we want everyone to know how things will be working for the next few weeks.

There’s nothing quite like the view from a mountain to make you feel just how big the world really is. The landscape stretches ahead of you for miles and miles. Towns look tiny, nestled in the valley. The long, brown road snakes in and out of mountain. The great pines look like nothing but dabs of dark green on a landscape of white and tan.
It’s a whole new perspective. It’s getting the bird’s eye look at the world while feeling like nothing more than a mouse.
Something surreal tends to happen right before a big storm. The beautifully painted sky is slowly consumed by big, dark, billowing clouds. A sometimes eerie silence descends on the earth. Birds and bugs alike go silent, waiting for the moment. In the distance, faint rumbles of thunder can be heard. As the storm gets closer, they get louder and more frequent.
And then it happens. The first few drops of rain fall on the dusty, parched fields. The silence is deafening as the creatures of this earth wait. And as if to answer the prayers of farmers, the heavens open to release the waterfall of life. Lightning illuminates the sky as the dust settles and those who depend on the soil breathe a deep sigh.
This is a picture of luck. And a lot of patience. I had already spent quite some time, lying on my back, contorting my body this way and that, just to get the perfect shot of a simple dragonfly. I tried low angles. I tried high angles. But nothing quite captured the feel. I didn’t want all the background noise. I just wanted the dragonfly. Pure and simple.
So I took photo after photo. And then it happened. I focused solely on my subject. I took a deep breath and pushed the button. And there it sat; the perfect, focused moment. A snapshot of a single moment in time, as a dragonfly hangs carefully onto the end of a stick as the backdrop of the world circles around it. Nothing fancy. No editing. Just life in a moment.

If we were to call to mind an image of Ancient Rome or Greece, there’s a good chance that, regardless of what scenes we imagine, they’d probably be dotted with white, marble statues. Unless you’ve studied the topic, there’s very little likelihood that you would imagine those statues as brightly (even garishly) painted. And yet, that’s exactly how they looked in ancient times!
Sometimes we find new information that completely turns our old understandings on their heads. Here’s one such topic, perhaps!And in the course of the segment, we reference a great website. You can check it out here:
Matt Williams and Jake Harmon from Sherriff-Goslin Roofing join us to talk about how we can determine the condition of our roof as well as a number of things we can do to increase its lifespan!
Nothing screams “exciting” quite like a topic called “Patching Holes.” But, regardless of its “fun-factor”, patching holes is a common project around the home. Today we go over the different products you’ll want as well as some methods to get the best results!
We’ve got some of the products we talked about below if you’re interested! And also, further below we have a video that represents the process we spoke about regarding fixing larger holes. Check it out!
