Whirlwind Day

My temporary across the street neighbors moved to their lake side site today. Apparently this is the kind of winter you can have if you work cement in Quebec in the summertime. Last year he did Mesa, Quartzite, AZ and the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas. Honey and their black Lab became friends.

The Georgia neighbors on the right, her sister is visiting for a few days. Nice folks.

I was scurrying around and saw them taking pictures and turned around to see what they were shooting and took some of my own of the sunset.

Greg and Lew dropped by for Greg to have a beer. They are always fun to talk to- we laugh a lot.

Richard, and Susan and Teakala invited me over for dinner tonight. Much younger, they are living their lives according to their ideals which are a mix of native American traditions, green, and save the turtles. They are resurrecting an ancient Airstream Trailer and it is a sight to behold on the outside because the finish is so irregular and it is outfitted with solar panels and a wind powered generator. It is a sight to behold on the inside because it has been completely custom built in a green fashion. They are 97% plastic free. The engineering and artistic flair is manifest in everything. The lights are L.E.D., the fixtures are sherbet cups, and hubcaps. Richard fixed an organic chicken gumbo and cooked a separate vegetarian meal for Susan. Teakala is being homeschooled and she is a delightful redheaded six year old. Their time in the park is up on Monday and they have not found a place to go...yet. Here is their house and some of Richard's art. These pictures are better enlarged so click on the slideshow to go to the Album.
