Spontaneous adventures

Today fate brought me to Paulo’s Auto Shop to have my leaking tire patched.

Who would have known it was next to a glass company with a dumpster full of beautiful windows and doors?

5 hours later the ARC is filled with building supplies to build a greenhouse and anything else we could imagine. Thanks Merav and Matt for coming to the rescue! I would have had no idea what to do with the treasures without your help

A U-haul truck filled with giant sheets of glass, a trip to a neighborhood dump, and a journey to Nancey’s for everything but the cat. That was epic…

The seed donation is coming tomorrow!!! Yay!

After the Storm

Today was beautiful and sunny here in Montara. It has been raining all week and the storm is finally over. The house, like the land, is going through a cleanse. We are rearranging, reorganizing, and taking out the old to make way for new energy and inspiration.

Today I cleaned the living spaces and cleansed the front yard of invasive scotch broom. We cut up the old christmas trees for firewood, and the garage also got a good cleaning thanks to Kelly and our guest Josh.

There is now a temporary greenhouse on the back porch and I just heard back from our seed donation letter…All of the seeds we need are being donated to get the garden up into production!

Speaking of the garden I think one of our Broccoli’s is ready to harvest!

Trent just left, but he finished setting up our house computer so we can keep you updated and keep organized! Thanks Babe…you’re so sweet!

What a great day!

Love, Rosalie Atianna

As I spend some quality, quiet, alone time at the ARC today, I contemplate life and my purpose, happiness and it’s source, love and the universe…*sigh*…I watered the peas on the back porch today and found one tiny pea pod!!! Yay! Our first one. I am also planting poppy seeds in the bedroom window box Everything little thing is beautiful when you let it be beautiful.

Rosalie has cleaned the house at the ARC. We are setting the intention that this

space will be clean and sacred henceforth.

Kelly has been cleaning the garage…there is plenty to do out there.

Matt and Merav are scavenging the neighborhood to find things we can use or recycle.

On the 11th of January we planted dozens and dozens of seeds. Keep watching for further updates on that. Sprout pictures coming soon!

With roots outstretched

Old connections remade

We bake roots in the kitchen.

Out in the yard

We have been working hard

to recover the roots of good livin’.

Inside to the fire

we come to retire

and cook up the gifts we’ve been givin’.
