    Seriously, these animals are NOT cooperating with the whole Trail Cam Friday premise! WHAT THE HECK!?!? Do they not understand that I need some real pictures???

There also was an operator error in one camera. ONE camera you move the switch to the right to turn it on. The other, you guessed it … to the left. So one trail cam wasn’t on at ALL. I can not win! BTW the whole to the left to the right thing….. I have to share a quick story. I downloaded the TikTok app. There are some hysterical videos on there.

  • How to Build a Business from Home

    Build a Business Home office

    Now, more than ever before, people are beginning to question the traditional business model. Thanks to the advent of technology and the fact that almost all of us have access to the internet at home, we’re starting to ask a simple question: why can’t I build a business from right here in my sitting room? The answer is that you can. With old-fashioned office spaces becoming increasingly unnecessary, and shops no longer required for selling your wares, there’s nothing to say you can’t start your business with minimal overheads by beginning it right where you are.  All that could be in the way, really, is not knowing how to get going. So here is a simple five-step process to help you get set up.
