I miss this. Winter is long.

A California angel dropped in to see me, amidst my very chaotic life, and we headed straight upstate. Animal sitting in the SNOW (it is winter... finally). 7 chickens, 3 ducks, 2 cats and 1 dog, amazing.

Best weekend ever.

When in doubt, hack it out.

So I know I'm always on about how amazing everything is but let me just reserve this moment to really say how amazing the treehouse music festival was! The festival, despite the name, wasn't actually held in the treehouse but it was held just down the road in Julian and Juliette's barn. The usual venue for such an event. The performers were P.G. Six, Meg Baird and Hiss Golden Messenger and their acoustic lilts were all perfectly matched with a cold upstate night and a christmas lit barn. Meg even brought her dulcimer for the occasion!

oh yeah... did i mention?

Made a solo trip upstate this weekend on a whim. More of the same, but so fun. I filmed the ducks and chickens: weird.
I also found an enormous spider in the wee and may or may not have sprayed him with RustOleum. Must have been all the talk of brown recluses earlier in my day, I feel pretty guilty.
