Hillary wanted to be near family during the pandemic so she is here and with two good cooks on hand we are enjoying fabulous meals and interesting dinnertime conversations. She is also working at Joy Creek 3 days a week to make the family connection all the more iron-clad.

Getting the orchard pruned is a big project every spring. Richard has a love/hate relationship with this particular chore.


This year the project went much faster with Hillary’s help.


We can easily add a few more chairs if you decide to share one of these sunny afternoons with us (I am sure they are just around the bend).
