Our neighbor dropped dead in his hallway one morning in January. His wife of almost 10 years moved out within 3 weeks and moved to Portland, near her DD. The house was left to his two daughters. He was a hoarder in the out buildings. He carved every piece of wood in that house.
The estate sale company brought in 2 dumpsters. They've been working there 5 days a week since early March. I've been to almost all of his/her home and out buildings. One could barely walk around them. These pics are amazing!!

WOW!!! I've gotta say, tho -- awesome wood carver!!! I'll assume he's sold also -- as income???
I'm hoping the daughters kept a couple pieces for remembrance of his talent. But, that's a huge estate.

Up fairly early this morning. Had a couple cups of coffee before going outside. Goat is milked and other critters are fed, including the fish. Lotsa things to do. One more cuppa and I'll head back outside before it gets much warmer.

DH said he wants to go with me when I go to town. He wants to go to HD and get lumber for the green house,
which will now be instead of a 3hour thing into a 5. I just wanted to go get my xray get my costco shopping etc., and all done and get home.

Ahhh -- greenhouse envy.
One here would be nice but, don't see it making it's way to top of my list.
Changed up job schedule & spent the day at home. I was productive tho -- laundry, dishes(DW even emptied!) canned, ran errands. Topped all water troughs, hugged some goat kids. Worked thru it and found it relaxing - no stress, no rush, some organizing done.
Actually had a cup of coffee yesterday afternoon -- on the porch! It was sunny, warm & haven't done that in a long time. Enjoyed it. Now, this morn it not porch time! Only 46*, light overcast. Yeah it's coffee inside!! Chores are done. Computer checks done. Time to leave for work. Feel rested tho.
