It’s beginning to feel like winter. The temperatures have been in the thirties and we have had some sleet and freezing rain. Snow is something of a rarity over here and the damp cuts right through you.

Clearing the perimeter of the property has become a bit of a heathy obsession. You can now see into the woods from the sun room. Working in the brisk air beneath the fir trees was meditative.

Gabe capped off Sunday by making a roast leg of organic lamb with rosemary, garlic and lemon. We shared the meal with our neighbors and had a great afternoon sipping wine by the fire.
