After a several month hiatus, I am resuming this blog. I sent an e-mail to my dad, Bud Hoffer, and tried to attach a photo easily from my computer's library and it simply didn't work. Dad likes to have a printed page to be able to read, and loves seeing the photos we collect. So, here goes, Dad, this one's for you!
Every summer, we have a project that commandeers Mike's time. Last year, he spent most of the summer preparing for teaching in Italy, especially for the Consumer Behavior course - one that he never teaches at the U of O. But, here and there, he also found time to complete the guest cottage sufficiently for our summer guests.

Mike stands below the site of our next project: the tree house! This lovely oak is behind the main house, and is one of several old giants back there. We intend to build a platform on which the tree house will be constructed this summer. It will connect to another oak via a rope bridge that an engineer (!! someone we know!!) is designing. There is noise about a possible fire pole and a zip-line. If only it stood over the swimming hole.....
