It has been a stressful few weeks, our car blew up and is still waiting at the bottom of our driveway to be towed to the house. We drove to West Virginia and bought my dream car, a 2004 Subaru Forester. It is already the perfect farm car, with so much storage space for markets. Unfortunately, because of the payments (added on top of our broken down car's payments) and higher insurance, Jonathan has to give up his extra day off from our day job, which means less time to do farm work. It could be worse though, hopefully we will find a way to sell the old car soon enough. We spent today working on more mushroom baskets and weeding the garden which was completely over run. I wrote about the mushrooms and shared more photos on the farm blog, here . The rabbits are growing fast and I love these spotty babies.  Well, it is late and my comfy bed is calling me. Goodnight. rabbit tractors Rose's spotty babies Amy's spotty babies Amy with her kits This...

We finally got another car. It's by no means fancy or new, but it runs good and doesn't look too bad either. The best part is we got a pretty good deal, leaving a small chunk of change leftover for a tune-up and any repairs we find we need. The car is 1992 Subaru SVX, which was a sports car back in the day, but obviously not very successful at the time as there were only 14,000 sold. It's pretty cool having something that no one has heard of before. It has 195,000 miles on it, which is a lot, but it has had regular maintenance and even had receipts from all the major stuff, like the timing belt and water pump. We paid $1450. That was way more information than most of you wanted to know, but who knows, maybe somebody did.  It will get us from home to work, for now, which frankly is enough for us.  (it does help that it doesn't sound like it's going to fall apart, like the Jeep) Until next time, Angela Kelly
