Calm Aftermath
This morning dawns with a fresh version of calm and quiet after our very long, busy, thrilling day yesterday, hosting our first significant ‘open-house’ / holiday gathering event. Friends and family, totaling 56 souls, arrived over a span of 10-hours to share “ooohs” and “aaaahs” over our precious new property and log home.
It is snowing here this morning, little floating flakes that are all resonating ‘calm.’
I could use a few full days of calm right now, but the holiday extravaganza that is before us for the next three, will dramatically limit the amount, for now.
We are grateful for the precious people who shower us with love and attention, and we wish all of them, and all of you who read me here, the very best (including some peace and calm) this holiday season.
Happy Holidays !

It all sounds just fabulous, John – returning the seasonal greetings from all of us and especially the five horses, who nod and neigh in approval of all you are doing.

Leftovers? Yeah, just a bit. I won’t mention the items I heard Cyndie telling her mother about, that she had forgotten to set out, and were now available to be brought to tonight’s events in Edina.

Okay, I’m back in business! I guess it was just my bookmarked link that didn’t work anymore (who knows, I’m sure operator error…). Anyway, thanks for having us out yesterday, we had a wonderful time–wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the fire!

Welcome back to this virtual place!
So glad you ventured out this far, with your whole brood, on Saturday. We hope to offer the invitation again, during a warm season, and when there are horses to meet!
Sorry the sledding wasn’t prepared in advance. One, among many, that didn’t get accomplished in time.
