Our Amazing View

After many frustrating attempts I have finally been able to get a picture to post in my blog!  Just thought you all might enjoy seeing the view from our cabin. 

This is a picture of Baldy Mountain which I took in May. Local lore has it that once the "Heart of Baldy" melts, it is safe to set out your seedlings.  Not foolproof by any means but a pretty good guide!   It was off of this mountain that we harvested trees (with a Forest Service pole permit) to make rafters and floorboards for our cabin.  It also provided us with NUMEROUS cords of firewood this past winter.

I love living in the woods!!!

Darcy, you must be excited to get out of bed each morning and see how "your" mountain looks that day. Please include more photos as the seasons change. Thanks for the subject for an upcoming painting! ............................Denise
