LittleFoot in Late July

LittleFoot was hot this past weekend - like, 98º-in-the-shade hot. And, at 3,700 feet, direct sunlight was unforgiving. Luckily, it is a deeply forested mountain range. We had fun. Found a swimming hole about 40 minutes away and spent Saturday drinking beer and swimming in cold mountain water. What I really liked was knowing how deep in the mountains we were -- how very far from the nearest town or city. That is a good feeling. The mosquitoes were heavy at the homestead, and my guests got buggered bad. I hadn't realized how bug-resistant I am. My first guests at the homestead - success.

I am eating organic quinoa, goats milk yogurt and toasted sunflower seeds. Damn, it is good. Guess I AM a hippie.
