November Chronicles: Bear Shenanigans, Porch Visitors, and DIY Adventures

Ah, November! The month where the air turns crisp, and life seems to buzz with activity. It’s been a whirlwind of events and projects, so it’s high time for a general update to keep you all in the loop.

Let’s kick off with Mr. Bear’s latest antics. This furry friend has turned into quite the tech aficionado, using the computer for what I suspect are his own bear-ish agendas. Whether he’s ordering honey online or browsing for bear-friendly destinations, we’ll never know. But it sure adds an amusing twist to our daily routine.

Then there’s Blue, our porch regular, casting those guilt-inducing glances. This charming visitor has a way of making us feel like we’re neglecting our porch-sitting duties. And honestly, can you blame us for caving in and spending a bit more time out there?

The bike shed project has been a recurring theme this month. It’s been a mix of hammering, sawing, and the occasional misstep, but the progress is undeniable. And speaking of bikes, the snowy trails have been revealing more than just the beauty of winter – they’re also showing mysterious tracks. A new puzzle every morning!

Sending a card to my daughter was a small but significant moment this month. Amidst the hustle and bustle, it’s these gestures of love and thoughtfulness that keep us connected.

Our trip to Lewis and Clark Caverns was a highlight, catching up with our friend Heidi and exploring the wonders of this rain shadow wonderland.

The van solar project was, without a doubt, massive. Wiring, panels, and a whole lot of learning – it’s been quite the journey towards sustainable, off-grid living.

And, of course, there have been my escapades around town on my EMTB and mountain bike. Each ride is an adventure, a chance to see the world from a different vantage point, feeling the wind and the freedom that comes with two wheels.
