Welcome Beautiful Fall

September in the Pacific Northwest is truly a beautiful time of the year. Hubby Scott has taken care of all of our hay equipment and placed each piece of machinery in its correct place for the fall and winter.

Blankets are ready for another winter, hopefully we will not need to use them.

My garden is winding down and getting ready for a much needed winter rest.

Every morning and evening this time of the year I hear these birds in the air. Many times they are right over my head while I am feeding and caring for the donkeys and horses. We continue to pray they will land in our hay field soon. I video taped them on a large farm here in Sequim, WA. Enjoy!

Donkey Bath Day

All donkeys need a bath when the weather hits 70 degrees or higher at least once a year. Tie the donkeys up together to give the bath as anything new is difficult for the donkey. Donkeys can learn to enjoy a warm bath but it takes time. Hand wash their face do not spray water on the face or inside the ears. Use  Anti-fungus shampoo and conditioner. We use the EZ wash wand.

Why do donkeys need a bath? Donkeys have really thick fur trapping fungus and dirt deep into the skin. 

Donkeys are self-thinkers,  deep thinkers. Brilliant as GOD gave the donkey the gift of problem solving to survive in the desert. Think first, react later most of the time. Horses have speed, horses are the flight equine. Donkeys are seriously into self-preservation.

Home Storage Solutions

 

Copied from the website above.

Proudly Serving The Greater Puget Sound Area, from Blaine at the Canadian Border to Olympia and all of the Olympic Peninsula.

My name is John Plake and I live in Port Orchard, Washington. I would like to introduce you to my business, Home Storage Solutions. I started the business over 11 years ago to serve the Olympic Peninsula, providing solutions to easy and difficult storage and closet problems.

My background is in home building as well as furniture building and now I am able to blend the two together to provide storage spaces (typically closets, pantries, linen and garages) which are not only functional and practical, but are also very aesthetically appealing. I will come to your home and take measurements and then develop a plan that will work for your space as well as your budget.

You may wonder if “custom” means your closet costs more. The opposite is actually true. Instead of having a warehouse full of parts trying to fit to your job; the company I use (www.stor-x.com) is a unique manufacturer and they start every job from scratch which means you get the storage solution you want, without having to pay for the “warehouse” so to speak. When the product has been created exactly to your specifications, it is packaged very carefully and shipped for installation.

I am able to offer a variety of wood grains and colors at a much reduced price. I also offer a line of baskets and tie & belt racks to complement your new closet. The possibilities are truly endless and fun!

Race Deck® is also a product I offer for the garage as well as mudroom floors. If you have ever thought of wanting a painted or coated floor, think again. Since most garage slabs are not prepared for a paint product, they will usually chip and flake in a short period of time. Race Deck®, which is made in the USA, is a durable option for a non-slip floor that you can even take with you if you move! Many colors are available and patterns are unlimited.

I am only a phone call away, and there is no charge for me to come and discuss your storage options, create a plan for you, and give you an estimate. So whether you are just starting or finishing your dream home or taking on a fresh remodel, Home Storage Solutions is here to serve you with your storage and closet needs.

STOR-X® Organizing Systems are custom-built, modular, and wood laminate-based storage systems that use European cabinet technology to achieve a highly flexible design in numerous applications. We offer over 15 environmentally friendly finish options. We also offer tie and belt racks, garment valets and roll-out baskets as well as many more accessory options to personalize your custom storage solutions.

Select don’t forget the closet for ideas

We highly recommend John Plake to you as your organizational specialist. Everything has a place in our new home, this makes our life less stressful. Getting organized seriously reduces stress. I am excited to share my experience with John Plake as he is a small business owner who does what he says. Truly a breath of fresh air to hire Home Storage solutions.

We looked at many on-line DYI projects and well it was not only expensive it was time-consuming and overwhelming. John Plake comes into your home and helps you make the difficult decisions easy. Next he orders the quality material and sets up the install date. He even wipes the dust off your new cabinets. Wow!

John Plake is a man of his word. A small business owner who will go above and beyond to make your life easier.

Thank you John!
