Daufuskie Island Conservancy’s Sustainable Farm Update

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

OK, now the goat barn is 99% finished with “Goat Barn” sign in place.  Looks great and the goats are feeling right at home.  Both are pregnant and after the baby’s are born, goats milk will be abundant.  Please call Pat Beichler to volunteer at the farm.  Goat milking hands are needed!  :-)   Many thanks to all of the volunteers for their hard work in completing the new barn.  Next up, the “Poulet Chalet” aka “chicken house” which is 70% complete.

stingray coastal decor sculptures

stingray coastal decor sculptures

One of the true wonders of wall art..in any form ..is that it can be placed or hung on a blank wall and have the ability to stand entirely on its own, without benefit of props or furnishings. (Walk through any gallery or museum and you’ll see what I mean.) Furniture, on the other hand, cannot! Invariably, it looks incomplete without some kind of accessorizing. (Say a mermaid sculpture or an iron fish for instance. ha!)

CASE IN POINT:

If you have an exterior door opposite your dining rooms entry, try hanging an iron fish sculpture on both sides of that door for a bit of a wow factor. (both, hung facing the door and approx. a foot and a half away from the casing.)

Or, hang a medium size pair of the metal fish (stacked) on one side of the door and the smallest size fish sculpture on the other.

In this brief blog, I would like to simply cast the following message, as a simple attempt to try and save time and spare anguish for so many fellow islanders:

Ask questions and do your own research before you get all worked up.  Now kiss and make up.
