okay well the living isn't exactly easy.... but I am definately enjoying blueberries and hay cutting and fields of lavender. Our next door neighbor has a wrecking/metal recycle yard (not too picturesque) anyway- the nicest people, and they gave us tickets to the local mud drags... I have to say it was pretty entertaining. Our neighbors wife was driving one of the cars, and she sure was impressive, I thought she was going to tip over. You wouldn't catch me doing that, but it was nice to see something I wouldn't normally have sought out! On the same day we went through the Oregon Lavender Festival- and visited a few farms, inhaling the scent! Maybe next year will be the year for our field. We had our hay cut, but it's been so wet that we haven't been able to bale it yet. So perhaps we will be making a straw bale hut up on our hill- we shall see... On the work front, I hired an assistant, Bonnie- she used to be a lawyer! but now is in love with art and wants to do something in an artistic area. I think she'll be great! I can't wait until she starts on Tuesday and things start getting done a little faster- and I get caught up!!!! I have a couple of seamstresses sewing my little sachets at the moment, but I am anticipating the need for more (more sachets and more seamstresses!)
take care all- hope you are enjoying your summer!
