rock climbing, working, eating, drinking, more rock climbing, one day of skiing, rock climbing, lots of working, wyoming, idaho, california, las vegas, and lots more working. that has been the last three months. here are some random shots to accompany my eloquent narrative:




now we are starting to cook some new stuff, updates to follow. it is also time to do some planting as the hop shoots have already sprung! another mild, dry seattle winter behind us, we are ready for long, warm sunny days.

eagle vs windshield

i learned a valuable lesson yesterday: if you ever see an eagle on the side of the road picking at a coyote carcass, be sure to slow down. that eagle may just decide to take flight and slowly cross the road. it turns out these large birds of prey don't gain elevation so fast and may not clear the top of your vehicle. on the good side, after some hopping about to gather its wits, the eagle did end up flying away. i would estimate i was going around 50 mph at collision time. happy new year
