Wow it's been a while since I got on here and talked about what has been going on. Let me first apologize for that. Heather has recently started working at the butterfly cafe in town and I should be starting there in another week or so. We are very excited about having steady work! That has really been the only challenge up here other than the cold. We have been working here and there for the local nursery owner, but working at the cafe and the nursery we will be set financially. This means a definitely on June Lake, and a possibly to a road trip to Portland at the end of summer. Well Heather and I love you all and look forward to seeing you soon!

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog page. I hope this will give you all a better glimpse into our lives up here in Mariposa. So far we have had sun, rain, fog, hail, snow, and mixed snow and rain. actually that was all in the first week! We made a snowman (Creeper) and a snowlady (Crepton). We have seen deer, grey squirrels, blue jays, and many other birds on our property! how cool is that right? Heather has been struggling with the cold, but she is a trooper and is starting to acclimatize. We have a test with the census beauro tomorrow, and and with larry from mimis in fresno on friday. We are also petitioning while we are looking for more steady work, so things are looking up for us in the job department. Ok well I've got to go mend the fence around the garden, and turn the compost pile, so I love you all and I'll talk to you soon!
