Mike didn't work at the Red Barn this week and the weather was nice, so he spent almost every morning gathering wood, cutting up fallen logs and stacking them in the shed.
We always find time to watch the Vuelta a España bicycle race, which ended today. Monday we were especially happy to see Mikel Nieve from Euskaltel win the stage, as we are somewhat partial to the Basque team.
A few days before that we had been very sad to hear of best Euskaltel rider, Igor Anton's accident.
Every Wednesday Skye has a football game. No close-ups yet, nor any victories, but #99 is playing well.
Kristie's birthday was this week. After my class Thursday we met for lunch at Panera's.
All week was spirit week, with a different dress-up theme each day in anticipation of Homecoming. This is Leah's photo of her kids on Friday, the big day.

I was reminded of the ceramics museum we visited in Ollerias, Basque Country, and the delightful lady we met there.
Lots of lovely wood for winter! Go Mike! As we arrived in Sta. Rosa last night and put the trailer in the garage, I saw the neat pile of fire wood stacked along the back and realized we won't be needing it next winter because we'll be in the U.S. :)
ReplyDeleteSeems like lots of birthdays lately... does your family have them in clusters like ours does?
As always a busy week for you... when do you find time to work?!
Looks like you had a nice celebratory week! I love Panera - I always get the same thing (tomatoe basil mozzerella sandwich).
ReplyDeleteWe have birthdays every month!
ReplyDeleteGood question ;) Actually structure helps me accomplish more.
I would love to do a weekend pottery workshop! I have always wanted to learn how to use a potters wheel. I did it in high school but it was nothing serious. Sound like great fun!
