One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have raised, slaughtered, cooked, and eaten chickens, ducks, and rabbits on our small city lot in Seattle. It sometimes feels amazing to be able to do this.

My 3 favorite day hikes are Chesler Park in Canyonlands National Park in Utah, Golden Canyon/Gower Gulch Loop in Death Valley National Park in California, and Green Mountain here in Washington State.

However, the most amazing thing I have seen are children growing up and becoming adults.
