It is a *glorious* late June/early July day here in the North Cascades … except it's early April. #Weather forecast is for slightly cooler tomorrow and Wednesday, then warmer again before returning to normal April weather on the weekend.

But who knows. Past three days the weather forecast is usually wildly wrong.

Very tired right now. After spending the winter in my house, which is still mid-remodel and not very comfortable (although easier to keep warm), I'm moving back into my nice fifth wheel trailer outside.

I spent the last night here and today I moved computers and UPS and desk and desk chair and the like, taking time to clean the dust out of everything since I had it disconnected. Thus why I'm tired; some of it is quite heavy and I'm doing it by myself.

#Weather very nice today.

Made a little progress on several different projects today. As usual I'm not entirely satisfied with how much got done, but the important thing is I did get stuff done.

Taking my wins where I can find them, I am…

I'm looking at a #weather forecast for Sunday and it says 75F/24C and I'm thinking, "Isn't this early April?"

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!

I just had a visit from the salespeople for the Internet company who have been installing fiber here since last Fall. And, yes, they are finally lighting it up!

I even have an install date scheduled. I haven't been this excited about paying a new monthly fee in years!

We’re training alpacas for the Utah backcountry! 🏔️🦙

We are officially documenting our journey of training these amazing animals to be our hiking and camping companions. We’re currently a year into building our off-grid property in the Sanpete Valley, and while we’re still living in our campers, the ranch life is in full swing.

We just posted our first video. It's called "A Quiet Beginning" and is just a mini-intro. We'll be posting weekly content.

If your feed feels a little noisy, we invite you to step into our world. Our videos are a deep breath of unfiltered calm—no talking and no rush. Just the sounds of the "Woof Pack," the wind through the high-mountain valley, and our alpacas grazing.

Subscribe and keep an eye on us as we grow and eventually head from the pasture to the peaks:
