To some this may look like merely a shallow trench. In fact, it is 5 hours of hard labor (with 100% Otis Redding soundtrack) which has earned us our room and board for today.
Today is sunny but two days ago it snowed!

Spain is doing you both justice! I can’t wait to see what happens with the trench. Also the boar skull: do you get to keep it, Austin?? I think it would make a fine planter.
Robins and spring are arriving here in PDX! Thinking of you both!
We just get to visit the boar’s skull in the courtyard. We also found a lamb skull with wiggly teeth and a sheep skull connected to a 2 foot backbone complete with broken ribs. Also there are a bunch of sheep who wander around the hillsides wearing bells- stereophonic sound.
OMG! I love that guest house living room! Aside from that, love the photo of the 2 of you, in fact all the photos are great! Keep ’em coming! …and Otis – you were not exactly sittin’ on the dock of the bay were you! (I wonder, does he have a song for “diggin’ in the trench of the retaining wall?”) Lots of love and happy digging to you both. Sue
Hi Sue! So glad you are following along!
You would absolutely love it here. The style of the guesthouse is right up your alley. It actually reminds me of you quite often 🙂 Maybe you should consider booking a room at the guesthouse for a little getaway…
