Hi Mindy. It's been 7 months since I got anything from you. Have you forgotten me? I'm subscribed but not a patreon. Haven't seen your summer garden or the finished sunroom you were in the middle of the-doing. Can you get back to we subscribers and let us know how your doing. Miss you guys a lot. 🤷‍♀️

Hello Mindy, Charles and family I haven't heard from you in a long time, I am moving from Christmas Valley Oregon back to Alaska, North Pole, I was diagnosed with cancer so my bucket list is to fish, hunt, fish and ice fishing, fly and die in Alaska LoL my faith in God is what keeps me going.
