JUST A SHORT ONE..............


This is just a short catch up blog
a few pictures
a few stories

I was sitting in the kitchen up at the 'big house' one day when Garen's Mom came in from outside.
'GAREN'
she called
'COME AND HELP ME'
Lyndsay had noticed a bird that had hit the winery window
She brought the bird up to the house for Garen to take care of
He put it in a box which was in the living room
We all thought it would be a good idea if he put the bird and box in his bedroom 
with the door shut
Soon the bird recovered and flew around the room
The bird was caught and outside he went
Garen was very happy that he was able to help the bird!


Something is going on in the winery??????


A tasting day for a blend that Lyndsay was working on

  2. Loved the wee story of young Garen and the bird. Who knows he may become a vet if not at the very least he'll have compassion for his feathered friends. Great value to instill in a young boy. I love your photos, the scenery is breathtaking. I especially enjoyed the one of Soap Lake. Got to get me one of those coat racks !! Safe travels to you and Joe and the fur kids. Love & hugs to our Gwennie. x0x0x0x0x0
