Today we had to say goodbye to Betty White Holstein, our Boxer. Betty was diagnosed with mast cell carcinoma last June. In January we had to put her on a chemotherapy pill. The last two weeks she went downhill fast. We want to thank Kindred Journey Veterinary End-of-Life Care Dr. Sierra for the compassionate attention she gave Betty. And thanks to those of you in Nostrland who sent up prayers for us. They do help and are appreciated. #nostr #grownostr #boxermom #boxers

Betty’s cancer has progressed, even with treatment, to the point we had to make the hard decision. So, her last day will be Friday. Some moments she seems fine. Other moments are very upsetting. Yesterday she had three seizures. Today one of the cancer sores on her hip looks deep. There isn’t a cure. She won’t improve. I hate this part of life. #nostr #grownostr #boxermom #dogs

Sweet Treats from the Porch 🍓✨ Nothing says "Almost Heaven" like a fresh, sun-ripened strawberry picked right outside your door. Our hanging baskets on the front porch are officially ready for snacking! We invite our guests to help themselves to these sweet treats as they relax on the swing or gear up for a day on the trails. At Holstein House, we love sharing the bounty of our zone 7a garden with you. It’s just one of the little ways we make your stay feel like home. Grab a berry, take a seat, and enjoy 🏔️💨 #HolsteinHouse #HomeshareLife #FrontPorchLiving #GardenToTable #WestVirginiaGardening #Permaculture #TravelWV #TrailsideTreats #HangingBaskets #nostr #grownostr

Good Tuesday morning all y'all! More garden work today as I get ready to fill the raised beds. Praying your day is a ducky one! #ducks #holsteinhouse #BNB #WV #travel #USA #nostr #grownostr

Got the trellis put on these two. Shuffled some stuff around. Saw a ribbon snake. Came in for lunch. LOL #snake #wv #garden #holsteinhouse #bnb #nostr #grownostr

Good morning all y’all! Dad came to switch out. He didn’t bring food, he brough flooring. LOL Mom took off shortly after. Babies got leftover fish tail for breakfast, and are now taking a nap. Time for me to get moving. Planning to spend most of the day in the yard. Have a wonderful Saturday! #eagles #wv #usa #holsteinhouse #bnb #nostr #grownostr

Good morning all y’all! Still a bit cool to be outside, but planning to get final planter assembled, then placed. I need to gather up the wood to put in the bottom. Pollen will likely hamper efforts. What are you looking at today into the weekend? #pollen #allergies #spring #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #nostr #grownostr

My father has melanoma, and passed the fair-skin plague to me. I haven’t had a melanoma yet but have had basal cell removed several times. Once at my eye. I keep up with my annual dermatology check-ups. Today I had a suspicious mole removed at the ankle. So much fun. #cancer #health #nostr #grownostr

Baby eagles on live cam growing so fast! I worry about the smaller one though. Nature is cruel sometimes.

The final home worship. Easter Sunrise Many Christians in the United States look forward to gathering at sunrise on Easter morning to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. In some communities multiple churches come together for one unified service. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CX4stp3mt/?mibextid=wwXIfr

HOME WORSHIP FOR GOOD FRIDAY While Easter is every Sunday, the days of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday are like one great annual Sunday.We believe that Christ is with us in his word, by his Spirit drawing us together as one before God. We believe that the gospel of Christ gives us strength amid distress and comfort in the face of our sufferings. For this Good Friday service, place a cross (e.g., a freestanding cross, a cross necklace, an image from the internet, a hand-drawn cross on paper) in a prominent location. GOOD FRIDAY THE SECOND OF THE THREE DAYS

These next three services are really one event, stretched over three days. For this Maundy Thursday service, provide a bowl of water and a clean towel for each person present. (Term maudy comes from the Latin word "mandatum," meaning "commandment," reflecting Jesus' instruction to love one another.)

Moved the sprouts to the basement where I set up a full spectrum grow light. It’s a little too cool down there to germinate seeds. Got a new light to add to the small one I have from last year. #grownostr
