Another day of working in a beautiful place. Not much new to report, the highlights of my day were looking out the kitchen window and seeing a flock of very fat quail looking for food, and when I was out on my afternoon walk, looking up and seeing a half a dozen or more deer were silently watching me. After a day of on and off rain, I was very grateful for the fireplace keeping the office space warm. I think the dogs were too, they spent the day dozing in their beds, then later came over to me when I was on the couch and gave me lots of love.
The sunset was fiery and gorgeous. When I went outside just before bed it was cold, but the sky was clear and the stars were so bright. I am so lucky to be able to spend time here.
