Happy New Year

May everyone have the safest and best New Year filled with love and joy and prosperity.

Rainy Day

Well the rain has returned for awhile here at Fairview. Christmas was fun. Getting ready for bringing in the new year. Hard to believe going into another decade. Time goes by so quickly.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all...

May the longtime Sunshine upon you all Love surround you and the Pure Light within you guide your way on

Day Before Winter Solstice

Decorating the tree that was felled yesterday. Cedar doesn't really make a traditional
Christmas tree however it smells so good. Later this evening will put garlands of antique glass beads on it. Usually the tree keeps being decorated for days until Christmas Eve.

Holding On

O it may look like the well is back. Yesterday was such a nightmare. The storage tank for the ditch water was gone. Nadda nothing every drop gone. Needed to call the usual pump service people that dug the well and put in the line for the ditch water for irrigation. The workman was very nice and friendly and helpful. He fixed a filtration problem. Then worked on my ditch pump that is sunk into an old septic holding tank from the 70's, discovering a new pump is needed. OMG this company is good and expensive. I need water up here on this hill. He installed a new 1.5 h pump. It did the trick today woke up to full tank of ditch water in the storage tank, that normally would take 2 or 3 days to fill. The biggest surprise of all is the well is spurting water up. OMG thank you!!!

After Paying The Property Taxes

Snowed in for 4 days and today it is raining. The weekend is predicted to be a wet one. It's good that Facebook exists. The games are attractive. lol

Snow Daze

Here is what the storm did to Fairview.

Woke Up To Winter Wonderland

Snowing

Prepared the last few days for this day. It has been lightly snowing today on and off. Started the day off by wrapping the outside pipes so they won't freeze. Started fires in both the wood stove and fireplace so far it has only reached 32*F outside. Supposedly a hard freeze is coming for the next few days the lows down to 18* and highs of 32*. Mighty cold up here in the woods of Northern California.

Bear Country

Well the bear discovered the last tree of Golden Delicious that was not picked. Must have been two of them because the scat was different colors. Eeewwww. puuuuuu. Yep living in the woods is so much fun.

December Morn

It is hard to believe the end of another year is quickly approaching. So much has happened in only a year. Yesterday another 7 quarts got canned. Decorating for Christmas begins.
