the first crab of the season

We celebrated the Feast of St Dungeness last Saturday. Fresh off the boat we thanked the crabs for giving us the meal.

Dashiell helped us consume, there are only two people foods he likes: melon and crab. He was so happy.

We picked all the claws clean.

 

A loaf of Night Heron Bread, a salad and a bottle of wine and we were satiated.

this piano deserved a party

In a shop tradition we gathered together to toast the finished restoration of Douglas's Hardman. This was a very long project but it is finally complete. 

We are all a bit sad because the piano and Douglas are going to be moving to Denver, but we will all just have to visit. 

the blogger returns

2023 was the year of Haikus and overalls. But 2024 will be the return of the blog. So many things to talk about. 

Haikus are still alive

I am wearing overalls

as I compose this

But the year started with trips to Millerton Point, North Beach, and Salmon Creek. So far so good.
