Quick Trip North

Here it is Sunday night already. I'm home. I went north to Peter's this weekend. I got there at 1:00 ish Friday night/Saturday morning and came home today. It was a lovely day. Because, really, I was only there on Saturday, having to leave by noon today.

Peter took pity on me and we did not work on Saturday. Instead we went for a drive up Mt. Baker, past Nooksak falls and way up this bumpy, unimproved mountain road. It rained. We stopped the car with this magnificent view of the mountain that included snow and waterfalls. We had a picnic with fresh vegetables, fresh fruit and smoked salmon. The clouds rolled in and obscured our view, then they rolled out, and then they rolled in...

Then it was home again. Peter has selected the spots for our future house.. and the future goat shop. These locations, of course, could change.

He thinks the house would be perfect way over there.. WAY over there.. behind those marshmallows, over toward that corner. That would be the northeast corner of the north field. It could work.


The goat shop, he thinks, would be good here. This is the north end of the south barn. The grape vines on the left need trimming and maintenance, and the pile of peat on the right will go away and a perfect little parking lot will remain.

I'm getting excited!
