Housewarming...

Yesterday, we had a fabulous house-warming, with about 80 guests. The garden crew had worked flat out to get the garden completed by 1pm and it now looks fabulous.




This morning, we woke to find a menagerie of animals and birds exploring the newness of it all... baby rabbits tussling about in the mulch and several chipmunks chasing each other all over the gravel, down to the creek. Meanwhile next door's woodchuck came by and cautiously inspected everything.

Yesterday our home was filled with conversation and good food, bubbling champagne and equally bubbling laughter, beautiful music, Nicholas' film and artworks created a quite magical event, as we celebrated the skilled craftspeople who brought the design to reality, the friends who had the initial vision for the development, and the many relationships here in America that have sustained and supported us during this remarkable year.



When we first met on Iona and the trans-Atlantic letters, phone calls and flights began...I used to say to Nicholas, "Hang on for the ride..."

It seems fitting that this daring couple are doing just that....
