I really don’t understand our cats. They are afraid of Sophie the bunny who is 1/6 their weight, while Sophie is totally fearless of the cats. Then on the other hand, Galen and Ricky are both very curious about the …
John and Carol came up to visit this weekend making it two weekends in a row that I saw them. Saturday John and I took the bikes into Bear River valley for a morning ride, and then they went to …
I have to warn you that today’s entry is a bit disgusting. My usual morning routine after I wake is to get the paper off the front porch, and then I go to the back porch to let the cats …
This is from the latest shoot for Lori’s vintage fashion web site. We took these pictures at the Hotel Ivanhoe here in Ferndale. I’m working on the hotel’s web site right now. The pictures were taken in the upstairs parlor. …
Spent the day riding down to San Jose on the Sprint so that I could attend a one hour meeting with a potential client on Monday. A late start meant traffic was terrible so I didn’t get to San Jose …
Finished installing the light fixtures we bought. The one pictured for today is in the parlor. It is a double kerosene lamp that hasn’t been electrified. Since there wasn’t a ceiling fixture in the parlor anyways, we decided to leave …
As I mentioned a few days ago, I had started installing some of the antique light fixtures we recently purchased. The picture shows the first two that we’ve hung, the one over the stove and the one in the sitting …

As I previously mentioned, this week the Humboldt County Fair is in operation in Ferndale. Interesting that Ferndale gets to host the county fair, but I can’t think of a better place for it. This is fairs like they used …
This morning we introduced our cats to the new bunny, who has been named Sophie. Fortunately they don’t view Sophie as a cat, so they didn’t feel the need to hiss at her. Also they don’t view Sophie as food, …
The Humboldt County Fair opened today, and Lori wasted no time picking out the newest member of our household. This as yet unnamed bunny is a Netherland Dwarf, and they are only about 2 pounds when full grown. So far …
Yesterday we had a cable modem installed. Yippee! Finally high speed Internet access in Ferndale! My computer is still in the shop though. They don’t know what’s wrong with it yet, but at least it’s failing on them too. Sunday …
I went to the fair today to drop off some more of my pictures for the fair. I dropped off two others last week for the juried exhibit, unfortanately they didn’t get accepted. I guess the judge wasn’t a fan …
While Lori was rehearsing again, I went to the Ingomar for their Annual Garden Barbecue. Here’s the report of what I had: Rabbit Sausage – Very good, I’m not sure if you could really identify what kind of meat goes …
