With the advent of Spring coming to Minot North Dakota I could no longer blog from the basement. Although I had set up enough lighting in the basement I could get a tan down there it just doesn't compare to being out on the deck blogging.
That being said sitting on the deck and typing with mittens and a parka on isn't all that appealing either so I needed to find a solution.
My first thought was a nice 3 seasons room like my neighbor sells for about $25,000. My next thought was the little green house I have but it is only about 2 feet square. My 3rd thought was eBay and a bigger greenhouse...BINGO! 5 days and $85.00 later here I am in comfort blogging from the deck with no mittens or parka. Of course the temp today is 65 degrees but on a Minot Spring day it could just as easily be 35 degrees so now I'm prepared!
When you live in a crazy climate like North Dakota you have to be inventive to maximize your outdoor time. For just $85.00 I've got myself an outdoor, climate controlled office that I can also start my garden plants in.
Oh, and I have to mention that about 15 minutes into my blogging out here I received a call to list a farmstead.
Life is good.
