Farewell Arizona

By -
The family is together again one last time in Arizona before Patrick moves to Chicago.

We enjoyed a nice sushi dinner, conducted a little family business (Jörg is returning to Montana with his old Honda Civic which Patrick has been using for the past two years), and said our farewells.

Tomorrow Jörg and Katherine will return to Montana, and I get to stick around to help Patrick drive his household across the country.  At least I’m not responsible for this move.  😎🤪

Lunch Dates & Duties

Twice each week, Katherine and I get together for a lunch date, to run errands or go to appointments (haircut tomorrow), and just "check-in".  Our last lunch date was at Rib & Chop in Livingston where she got her "usual" (salmon).  We really enjoy these get togethers.

White Walls

The snow is melting quickly now that the temperatures have hit the 50s (and low 60s today).  Yesterday I went to Absarokee to work on staining the posts and beams for the porches.  This is a continuation of work I did with Dad a few weeks ago but this delivery of beams was more than double that first batch.  I worked all day and didn't quite get to the halfway mark. I did, however, get a few pictures. And today, I went back to keep going but this time I brought help! This will be my project room. The office Setting up the beams for staining. Three beams from the last batch get a second coat then it's on to the new stuff. 20 beams A little snack break in the back of my car. By 5:15 I was out of energy and space.  These last three beams were too close together to prepare them for stain. Since I didn't finish on Thursday, I returned today and brought reinforcement.   Not a bad place to work...if you must work. :)

Baking Class

After our fantastic first experience with a King Arthur Flour baking class, we decided to sign up for some additional classes. This time I took a class by myself. Our first two classes Joerg and I did together, which was fun. Now that we know how the classes work and how long it takes to get to Norwich from Williston we feel more comfortable with signing up for individual classes. This class was called Whole Grain Baking. We made 100% whole wheat sourdough boule (ball-shaped bread loaf...the white one with a star on it) and a grainy sourdough rolled in seeds (the long batard and the boule with poppy seeds). We even had a chance to see one of our breads baked in a brick oven. It was a great class.
