Why I love the Mountain Homestead
I'm back in southern Oregon (Coquille) for my 2nd visit at the Mountain Homestead. I had a truly amazing time last year and I seriously doubt it will be any different this time around. I'll be adding to this list as time goes on, so check back.
-
the people (funny, caring, intelligent, inclusive, etc)
-
the land (wild, beautiful, forested, mossy)
-
the work (fun, tiring, involved, communal)
-
the stars (clear, bright, plentiful)
-
the cats (raccoon & kiwi)
-
the fog (thick, deep, dissipates by first light)
-
the temp (warm during the day, cool at night)
-
the fact that it takes about 30 seconds for each list item to save when using the dial-up connection
-
the reservoir (wet, cold, naked, etc)
-
the fruit/nut picking (free apples, berries, filberts)
-
the lookout fir (tall, climbable, vista-enabling)
-
Clara (she's our guru, she's hilarious, she's Clara)
-
the popcorn (garlic, dill, nooch, salt... need I say more?)
Comments
There's nothing like watching the stars after you've been in the city too long. Light pollution sucks.
