The stack of finished NEB's Fun World logo signs grows each workday with one last batch in production. Our painters will be happy to see them finally finished and heading out the door as it seems they have been working on them forever.

We've been on our small acreage in Yarrow for a little more than fourteen years. When we bought the property my dream was to have a large rolling lawn. Becke's passion for miniature horses (with Janis backing her up) meant the lawn was much smaller than I dreamed of for most of those years. With the horses now gone and the arrival of Becke's modular home it was time to redraw the boundaries of the lawn at last. We hauled in an incredible amount of fill to bring the new home foundation up to the specs which the municipality insisted on. Over the last weeks I have spent many hours on the tractor, and with a rake, shaping and smoothing the soil to blend the ground into the existing lawn we planted three years ago. Yesterday I measured up the bare space and ordered 6,000 square feet of turf. It arrived this morning. With the help of our hard working crew we got it down before noon. My directions were simple. GREEN SIDE UP! The 10,000 plus square feet of rolling lawn looks awesome! I can hardly wait to mow it!
Back in production
Every once in a while a smaller project languishes in a corner of the shop while large projects are on the go. This past year has been especially busy with a variety of projects plus two large projects on the home front. But in the last week we are starting to see the light once again. Becke dusted off the Spring Horse Farm sign I sculpted late last year and painted on the primer and base coats. More colours will follow with glazes soon after that. This sign will soon be ready for delivery at last.
