Our Home Community

I am so thankful for the sun today and the beautiful community in which we find ourselves at this point in our lives. Standing on a deck high on the hillside (even though I could not see the ocean which I miss living in the Valley) it really does take my breath away looking at the beautiful snow capped mountains hugging the greenness of the Valley.

Although I love to cook, dealing with meat is really problematic for me. I refuse to touch it in its raw form with my hands and have a hard time cutting meat from the bone. This causes some challenges when I decide to cook at 14 lb turkey just because... so today I am thankful that none of that phases the paramedic... and I really appreciate it the smile on his face as he catches me grimacing as he washes, stuffs, stretches skin, carves and pulls apart. Gah-roossss.
