my brothers place outside newberg. 10 acres filberts, 2 acres lavendar, 1 acre pinot noir grapes. this was a bittersweet day. my 50 bday and almost all the sibs together. the first time since the eldest, naomi, died in nov 08. and one brother in portland had to work. great to have so many bros and sis(and kids n grandkids) together but we were sure feeling the loss of naomi.
thanks again!
