Nanuq Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Well today it's official, we signed the papers to make the Eagles Nest our own. To celebrate I took the ever delectable Ms. Nanuq out to a dinner of steaks and portobello by candlelight. It was over-the-top good, and now we're back home to a chinook wind, 56 degrees and the entire house is creaking, the windows and walls are flexing in the gusts. We have a high wind warning tonight, meaning winds up to 100mph. I've got a nice fire in the woodstove, Mozart on the stereo, and it's music listening to the wind in the trees and around the roof. Ahhhhhhhh, it doesn't get any better than this. We are blessed. Here's to new adventures, large and small! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 I was thinking with the conditions that 'Hall of the Mountain King' by Edvard Grieg might be more fitting. Congrats to you and the family B, must be paradise to you guys. Ken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demsey Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Schweeeeeeeeet! But Mozart?! Romantic fireside chats?! I think Ken was getting closer. Still. From the desription you gave Bob, I'm thinking something a little more edgy, like standing on the balcony with a bottle of spirits, full frontal into the wind............ "So I'm packing my bags for the misty mountains. Over the hills where the spirits go now. Over the hills where the spirits fly!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted October 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 YEAH BABY!! I *like* your idea, Dems! The Mozart was because the Rabid Viking in me can't always come out when the ever delectable Ms. Nanuq is present. I don't want to scare her too much. Hmmmmm, wouldn't that call for some Aqevit and a horned helmet? (raising fists to the heavens) YAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHH!!! Okay, I'm calm again. We were married on a 54' sloop in Resurrection Bay, out in Thumb Cove. And on wedding day I played the Water Music Suite sailing out, and the Fireworks Suite sailing back. So last night was Mozart again. ps: that Youtube was HOT! I rated you 5 stars and put in a comment even though I wasn't logged in. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

Demsey Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 I don't want to scare her too much. Understood. My comments were contrived and facetious. Just firing for effect as the meteorological picture you painted, and the geography which I know, certainly did conjure up Valhalla and the Hammer of the Gods. Hence the tune. If you think Mrs. Demsey is anywhere near the man cave when I turn the Marshalls up to 11? Well, you must meet her some day. She's the classically trained pianist. Trust me, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik is no stranger to my stereo. It's awesome and I'm sure Jimmy Page if not only John Paul Jones would certainly agree! There's the music you like, and then there's the music that comes out. Enjoy the new digs. Very happy for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight we're having Rep Weather, it's just acting like a hurricane, but it's not really the same thing. We haven't broken 100mph winds yet. YAAARGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
