New office digs
Every morning when we walk across the campo to get to the farm house, it’s like a mini adventure. You walk through fields of knee high grass, dandelions, and scrub bushes, through marshy wet lands, over small creeks on old faded boards, and finally through the gates to the farm house where our host family and the internet connection lives. Mmmmm, sweet tasty internet.
The past few days have been absolutely gorgeous. Saturday we mainly hung out at our house on the hill and had all the children with us. Sunday I mainly worked inside on various projects on line. I worked mainly from the main dinning table for most of the day. It’s the main source of all activity and noise on the farm. Needless to say it didn’t help with concentrating or sinking deep into thought on some things that I needed to get done.
After I was finished with my on line work, I decided to make a small little office desk to go upstairs where I could be a little bit more out of the way. I took some scrap pieces of wood from the bodaga and fashioned myself a nice, light, little desk. You can see it in the picture above. That is my new work area. It has a nice view out to the eucalyptus trees and a small field. Right now I have the window opened and a fresh breeze is coming through.
Hopefully I’ll be able to go out and play some this afternoon or this evening. We’re so far south the sun doesn’t set until 10 pm. It’s really been tough to get accustomed to it. Off to go get some work done.
