More January stuff......

Well it's a good thing Lorelei has taken a few pictures, otherwise I would have none to post. I have been shooting basketball and that's about it. So here are a few pictures from Lorelei!

All us boys playing Pinochle.


Below: Cody loads up the wagon with firewood to haul up to the campsite. We bring the large rounds of wood to this area for splitting and then we sort and store the wood in several locations depending on the usefulness of the wood. The good stuff (oak, madrone, maple) gets stacked and sold or used in the outdoor kitchen for cooking. The "crap" wood goes up to the knoll for campfires.




Below: An Old Growth stump on our property is a reminder of the very large forest that once stood here. These giant trees were cut in the mid 1950's.


Queenie and Cody out on a walk.


Below: The remnants of the rotted out maple tree that caused Jon and I so much trouble a couple of weeks earlier.


Below: Lots of water running through the property this time of year. This is the culvert that goes underneath the road that leads up to the knoll and the campsite.


This will be a busy week for basketball. Jon has three games! Lorelei's long term sub job has come to an end but she picked up another one that has her working part time this week. Cody is practicing hard at chess this week and Saturday is the regional tournament!

Lorelei has been very sick with a cold but I think she is over the worst of it.

That's about it for now,
