Meet Mersh-Mersh

We are pleased to announce that a new member of the Stenzel lineage will be emerging this October!  For now, we've been calling the little creature "Mersh-Mersh," but we plan on giving him or her a real human name at some point (or maybe not).  Looking forward to all of you poking my belly when I'm home for the 4th of July!

Love,

Emily&Matt&Mersh-Mersh

Happy 24th Birthday to Andrew

Our collective Andrew is spending his birthday selling his wares at an arts / crafts / music festival near his current home in northern California (nearest to Sawyer's Bar and Forks of Salmon) near Oregon.  Says he's healthy and happy in his communal living situation, living close to Mother Eaarth.  We sure do miss him, but we love him for his courage and sincerity and sweetness and striving for what he believes is right.  It's a hardscrabble life out there.

Thanks Andrew for the Kayak!

Ice out on Bass Lake!

A Great Big Happy Birthday to Mike

Here's wishing a very happy birthday to Mike!

The rumor going around is that he is 53 years old on April 4th.

How can that possibly be true?

Seems like just yesterday he climbed the Robbinsdale water tower.

The one right next to the police station.

In a blaze orange jacket.

Viva la Mikey!
