Happy Birthday, Opa
We went to the Philips Hotel for a birthday dinner (after I opened a class at the High School). Dinner (Shrimp over angel hair pasta and crab cakes) was very good and not too expensive ($44) with 2 beers (Sam Adams and Blue Moon). Only 3 other tables were taken so it was quiet, also.
In 2003 we bought 58.92 acres on a hillside in Julian, Pa. We call it our Barony and this is its unfolding chronicle. Construction of Phase I (Carriage House) ended in 2004; Phase II (Main House) ended in 2010. Phase III is never ending. Visitors to our tale are invited to leave a comment.

Spring!
Nothing says spring like Maibock, morels and asparagus. Otto's had all 3 on the menu tonight; just the right amount of food, just the right amount of heat and garlic. After a day cleaning up at Laurel Haven with WOCC, that was just the right dinner, too. Gambol came with us but stayed in the car. He'd rather do that than stay in his crate at home.
After painting the inside garage/classroom and fixing up the parking area at Laurel Haven, we came home to weed and hack out poke roots in the new vegetable garden and plant hops behind the chicken coop.
Gambol didn't get his normal morning run in deference to Spring Gobbler Season so he ran free all afternoon. Matt got a gobbler in our Walnut Grove. (Now if he'd only get a doe or 5!)
I gave the peeps their first taste of yogurt. That caused quite a commotion. They ate it off my fingers but also off the wall where I smeared it.
It was a beautiful spring day at the Barony.
