Living In The Bush Changes Your Sense Of Time

Has It Really Been Ten Months?

Where to begin? The last ten months have flown by. We have been able to keep our Northern Dirtbags Facebook page active with bits and bites but this blog has sadly fallen by the wayside. Firstly there was the bandwidth issue. We found it very difficult to stay within the 15G limit that our cell data provided and the blog was the first thing to be abandoned. The second difficulty came from having only tablets for internet access. That meant writing of any length was tedious and uninviting. Well, things have changed. We found a cell package that increased our data AND we purchased a laptop. Now the blog can be updated as easily as we have found updating Facebook.*

*In case you aren't on Facebook our page can be viewed by the public at here. You can see all the posts. The limitation is that you cannot comment without an account. But please browse and update yourself at your leisure.

Tricia actually has blog pictures and thoughts from last year ready to go and plans to get started on updating immediately. You may see the things that happened out of order and they may not be in sync with the current season but we will update you on our goings on for the last ten months as well as what we are doing in real time. If you have been waiting for an update thanks for your patience. We really appreciate you sticking with us. 

In the meantime here is a little taste of what, over the winter, became Tricia's photographic joy - frost on the trailer windows.



And in case you love frost as much as she does, here is the full size image that you can zoom and see the gorgeous detail.

  1. We will be following your progress. My son has just set up camp on our acreage just outside of Thunder Bay. I am still in an apartment in Town since rouging it, is not quite my thing. lol. He is in a tarp shelter until we can fix the driveway and pull the camper in. He is also building a storage shed since the camper has limited space. We will add a lean-to greenhouse on the SE side to shelter the camper and crops. Hope to have it winterized by fall. Best wishes to you Esther
