We are slowly getting unpacked-yay!
After 22 years in one 2700 sq foot home we moved
350 miles south to a 1500 sq foot home. YIKES.
We downsized before leaving-similar to travelers
on the Old Oregon Wagon Trail- we tossed things
to friends, neighbors and charities.
Much to our chagrin we still had too much and we
have been taking things to charities and consignment
shops here in the Mt Shasta and Weed area.
We are making good prgress in making this lovely
place our new home. I'll just be glad to see the
last cardboard box go to recycling!

Our Chainsaw Bear's New Home
He sits quite happily on our deck facing south.
He can look to his left and see Mt Shasta
(reflected in the window)
or he can look to the right and see Mt Eddy.
He's a happy bear.

It's beginning to look like home...
Thanks goodness we're finally seeing
the end of boxes in our new home!
Only a week here and the house is shaping up.
We love it here!

Lucy has definitely settled in!The house has lots of windows and they all have window sills
so she is quite content! You can see the top of Mt Eddy
at the upper right hand corner of the photo.
Stupendous landscape.

"If you are going to continue to move stuff aroundand only leave me boxes to jump on, I will
continue to sit on your newspaper!"**
**Lucy's much meowed and repeated complaint.

Packing "The Garage"

Is there no end to the madness?
Actually, we can see the end of the packing tunnel.

My room has a lot that I have to sift through first...mama mia...

At first the boxes arrive empty...
Then the dismantling of the house....
And the packed boxes begin to surround us...Our home no longer has the redolence of cookies,
but rather the scent of cardboard and tape.
We have 30 days before our move and the
packing seems to never end. We have donated,
tossed and found new homes for alot of stuff.
But it doesn't seem like it!

Backyard Tree Collage
I thought since we are moving
that I would make a bark collage
of all our trees in the backyard.
Some of our trees were already here
and some were volunteers and all
the rest we planted-like our redwood
and our three paper bark birches!
So here they all are-tah dah!

We're leaving Bufo where he belongsOur dear friend Keith Jellum made this sculpture
years ago for us and we have loved having Bufo in our garden.
We will miss seeing him turning in the wind but recognize
that Bufo should remain here as the garden sentinel.

Our Chickens Have a New HomeWe are in the process of packing up our home
and will be moving mid-February to the Mt Shasta
area of California. We knew we wouldn't be able
to move our chickens there so a few days ago we
took our chickies to their new home just a few
blocks away. Here's a photo of Blondie and Moochie.
They are now living with two other chickens and they
all seem to be getting along. We will miss them and
it feels quite sad and odd not to look out the window
and see them pecking around our backyard.
