Homestead Blog Hop 345

Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop 345!

Hello on Wednesday, June 16, 2021 and welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop 345.

What's New at An Off Grid Life This Week

This week we are back to school...our summer homeschooling, that is. So that means finishing up our regular homeschool curriculum. And heading outdoors for nature lessons, homesteading skills, and art too.

This past week I also started a big decluttering project in my office and our homeschool room. However, we also found time for a big family hike on a trail we hadn't visited before. And now that the ice is completely off the lake, we had a few boat rides!

We also had a bit of an adventure with our lake pump....I'm sharing more about that in tomorrow's newsletter. (Sign up right here if you haven't yet.)

Also, if you'd like to see more of our off grid big family life, check us out on Instagram.
