We wanted to show you a couple of shots of the Yahara River taken from the house in winter. The southeastern sun is gorgeous and warms the house even on the coldest days. We've had many warm days, too, and the River has been alive with Canada geese. A bald eagle regularly flies over the river right at our eye level. Some days it's hard to get construction work done because the bird-watching is just so great.
We had our "Drywall Party" yesterday, and some wonderful friends came and spent their entire Saturday working hard hanging drywall with us. It was really great to get a good start on such a big job, but the best part was knowing how lucky we are to know so many fine, loving, and generous people. Thanks SO much to Henri, Kathy, Rich, Kreg, Evelyn, Mike, Leslie, Valli, Jack, and Laura's daughter Julia. Honorable mention to Spence and Deb who stopped by to provide moral support while sharing a shift at their book store. Thanks again, everybody, and most especially to Henri.
