Sista retreat 2009
we had another great year...what a treat to enjoy time with Lucy....she is amazing and so good natured ...she charmed everyone she met. they loved her at Bud's in St Marys
i spent a good deal of time opening up the old orchard trail again....(3rd year)...and have made a new path in on the driveway side each year and then improved existing trails with in the old orchard and up to yurt site #1... oh and site of new orchard and vegie garden......not to mention view extraordinaire....the interior decorators, sistas b (Linda) and d (Kathy), and Te worked their magic. Kathy will be composting food waste.....yah!!!!!!!! i almost read a book, WORLD MADE BY HAND and listened to the first few chapters of THE OMNIVORE’S DILEMMA i will be asking my friend Bill, the farmer, if his ruminants are grass feed. i may, at least for the short term, consider a new energy star freezer and the eating of some beef. Chad has shown interest in producing some beef jerky. oh and sista d, here is the dehydrator operation i spoke of.......
back to books.....i'm old enough to draw social security and still working on following thru...we'll see......oh and had the pleasure of some awesome baseball by my Mariners
