It’s raining sideways.   Wind’s steady at 20 mph, gusting to 30+.  It’s socked in so that we can’t see across the bay. The temp, with windchill, is 45-degrees.  And it’s still August.  One way or another we gotta get outa here!

So, any one want to hop to an island?  Check it out…

Fun stuff.  Feeling better now?

We recently posted about eating local right here in Bellingham, but if you are looking for other ways to try local food head out to Everson this weekend. Nimbus Restaurant is hosting its first Dinner on the Farm with Cloud Mountain Farm. The 4-course dinner will be prepared by Nimbus’ owner and chef Josh Silverman using fruits and vegetables from Cloud Mountain Farm. The wine pairings served will also be local with grapes originating in western Washington. The event will allow guests to tour the farm, actually sourcing where their food came from. If you missed this weeks Eat Local at Mount Bakery head to Cloud Mountain Farm Sunday where you can eat local and see where your food comes from. Enjoy and continue to eat local!

They say the devil is in the details, but we don’t buy it.  What we find in the details is delight.

Whether it’s an ebony wedge in a nicely executed scarf joint or a timber column scribed to a stone base, or a small, cozy space with just the right fabrics and furnishings, it’s the details that, in our humble opinion, make good work great.  So here are a few pictures from a recently finished project where the details really pop.  For this endeavor, we once again teamed with our friend Scott Hommas  at Gelotte Hommas Architects–a talented bunch of folks who have designed several of our favorite buildings, and Hamish Anderson of Hamish Anderson Custom Homes.
