In the last couple of weeks the trees have been greening up once more. Vedder Mountain which is to the south of our property is wonderful to watch as the trees gain their leaves. With an elevation difference of almost 3000 feet the last of the snow is still on top and at the bottom the leaves are on the trees. The wave of bright green slowly rises each day.

This picture looking south towards our shop was taken from the porch of our old house and will be the view from the kitchen/dining room of the new one. The view is currently blocked by the old house which is only four feet behind the new one - but not for long. As soon as the old house is gone we will re-shape the yard, realign the fencing and begin the landscaping process. I can hardly wait!
