It has been raining in the Methow Valley like crazy! Folks who have lived here longer than us say it is one of the wettest Springs they can remember. On the other hand, it was such a dry (i.e. low snow) winter, that the aquifers must be recharging, which is a good thing. It is very green on the hills and I hope for more wonderful wildflowers in the high country as we move into summer. There has even been new snow up high in the North Cascades.
We are having an open house at our Benson Creek place the next 2 days. We ran an ad in the real estate section of the Methow Valley News, since it is Memorial Day weekend. The place looks good, all mowed and trimmed up, and we each have things to do down there in the (likely?) event not many people show up. I will be weaving away on rugs and Rick has a cabinet job underway in the shop.
Most of our advertising has a heading of “6 Sunny Acres up Benson Creek” – today I was grumbling about it being “6 Soggy Acres” – but it looks like the weekend won’t be too bad, especially Sunday.
Have had a few people stop by to look the last week or two, and more flyers are disappearing from the front gate, so anything could happen…

Do you have a bread machine? The smell of baking bread or fresh baked cookies is suppose to help sell!
