Here Comes the Buck


 
 

 

We have a lot of White Tail Deers by our area.  Very often they congregate around and we have to be careful driving.  Usually they are females and  babies around, never a buck.  We know there are some around.  Some of our friends come and ask if they can hunt behind our property and park in our driveway during hunting season.  Since we have never seen any buck so we let them park.  However, we have never seen them taking anything out.  That's fine with us.  Well, this beautiful six-pointer showed up.  My wife said, no more hunters allowed.

Fragrances, Essential Oil on the grow

We have been working on several new fragrances for this fall. Hopefully they will be ready soon. However, during this summer, we are adding an essential oil line. The initial ones that we are releasing are Lavender, Eucalyptus and Peppermint.

Here are some information my massage friends told me and I think we can always learn from experts in their field.



Lavender
- Useful in cases of muscle stiffness & aches & pains. Eases the lungs and helps with coughs, colds and flu. Blend with massage oil for muscle and joint pains and relieving muscle stiffness.



Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus
- Helps to clear the mind and focus concentration, while reducing swelling in the mucus membranes. Valuable in fighting respiratory problems, inflammation and sore muscles.



Peppermint

Peppermint
- Helps to relieve headache and indigestion, reducing mental fatigue, increase alertness, relieve nausea, relieve itching and help maintain alertness.



These products are not currently available in our shopping site yet. Hopefully, I should have time to get them there in the next couple of days. If you are interested, please call us at (973) 388-8888 or email at contact@vegi.ws

Enclose the open deck, and what do you get?

I finally did it. On the upper level, there are five (5) 8 feet sections. I bought 5 windows and frame the opening to fit the windows. Cover the lower sections with clear plastic sheets. Now I have a sun-room in the winter and picture windows and breeze when the windows are open for the summer. It did not solve all the problems for the summer because some of the flying insects are so small, they are still coming through the holes from the screen. Oh well. That's the work in summer instead of doing shows.

What to do with an open build-in deck?

A build-in open deck is useless in the country. Summertime bombarded by insects, wind and rain. Winter bombarded by Snow, wind and rain. Too expensive just for the look. Need to do something.
