Thanksgiving came and went this week, so we have another round of thanks for ya’ll!

First, thanks goes out to all of those that made our holiday special. We had beautiful people all around us for Thanksgiving, including the parents of two of our staff, Koalini’s father and Mike Joe’s folks. Doug “Greensleeves” Porch also helped out by leading a team, cutting and collecting wood to help re-build the walls of the labyrinth. A lot of love has been thrown into the labyrinth lately, and its looking better all the time!

We’ve been joined by a lovely Belgium couple, Hannes and Karen, who are helping us out for a month. Among many other projects, they’ve recently cleaned up the flower garden, making it shine beautifully. We’ve planted more fruit trees out at the lake, and have placed onions and garlic in the garden.

Our circles of thanks have again been blessed by folks from all around the world. Belgium, Brazil, and France sent their representatives this week, horrah!

Yesterday was a day of marvelous rain, and we had a relaxing indoor day. Crafts and presents were made, scrabble lines were drawn.

The epic tale of the baby ducks has drawn to a close. Our last remaining baby, Wiki, has been taken by a raccoon. Goodbye wiki! And, once again, thanks to everyone that has thrown their effort into everything here, from the tool sheds to the labyrinth, thank you so much!
