Holy Moly, it's Been Awhile...
It's official, I have too many blogs. I can't keep up. So... since my last update a lot has changed! We moved from Fort Bragg to Mendocino Village (9 miles south), first living in a little cottage on the hill with an ocean view, and we finally moved into our "dream house" just a bit further up the road in Mendocino. We love the house, it has a HUGE organic garden and five acres of redwoods. Of course, we have big plans for the garden! There are already blueberries, strawberries, and asparagus in it, and tons of room for whatever else we want to grow. We started a compost pile and hope to put up a hoop house, plant some plum trees, and get the garden cleared so we can plant all kinds of veggies. We may even be able to grow enough food to start a farmer's market booth!
Life in Mendocino has been great, it was a long, warm, and eventful summer. We got to sample some of the area's music festivals: Sierra Nevada Music Festival in Boonville, Reggae Rising in Piercy, and Earthdance in Laytonville. We went to the Rainbow Family National Gathering in beautiful Wyoming in July, and toured through Bryce Canyon, Zion, Death Valley, and Yosemite National Parks on the way home. We ventured up North for our annual visit to the Okanogan Family Faire and stayed in Boise for a couple weeks for the holidays. Lots of traveling, moving, and change!We started off 2009 by seeing two amazing concerts: Hot Buttered Rum (bluegrass) at the Fillmore in San Francisco, and the Faerie Masquerade Ball in Eugene, featuring one of our favorite bands, Kan'nal. In between, we managed to move into our new house, where we hope to stay for a long time!
Mendocino is amazing, we love it more as we get to know it better. There are all kinds of artistic opportunities, like-minded people, and we've made such wonderful friends here. We'd love to have friends and family come visit!
Keep in touch with my by following me on twitter, being my friend on facebook, or checking out my photos on flickr. Ciao for now, and I'll try to update more often!
