Is that a Sasquatch?

 I mentioned Sasquatch in my last post, not knowing I'd soon be having a close encounter myself.  Check out this photo:

Clearly this won't fool any cryptid experts.  My youngest created a short film for class.  And guess who got to play Sasquatch?  It was really fun chasing him and his friends through the dark woods on a super cold night.  But I had all that fake fur to keep me warm. No elves were harmed in the making of this film.  Later on, I got to attend the opening and my son's very first red carpet!

What is your favorite cryptid?

 My wife recently pointed out this photo to me and while meant to be funny, it gave me a shiver.  Elves are okay by me.  Mothman - that's a whole different freaky story.  My wife found out there is a whole museum devoted to Mothman.  She will have to visit that alone.  I'll stick with elves - and maybe the occasional Sasquatch.  What is your favorite cyptid?

Winter is the Time for Making Plans

 By all accounts, its been a strange winter in Minnesota!  Still, whether the snow flies or not, winter is the time for me to make all my summer plans.  Winter is when I apply for grants, open calls and (gulp) handle interviews for new jobs.  Here's a picture of me and my son hard at work finalizing a design for an application.  I'd rather be outside with a hammer in hand, but this is part of the business of being an elf house landlord!

Breaking News: Women's Environmental Institute Huldufolk House!

 I have some exciting elf house news to share!  I was awarded a grant to build a brand new elf house at the Women's Environmental Institute (WEI) in North Branch Minnesota!  WEI is such a fantastic place with such amazing programs.

This grant was made possible by the East Central Regional Art Council and the MN State Legacy Amendment.  The house will have a ribbon cutting in August, so stay tuned.  If you want to learn more about WEI and its incredible farming programs, you can find their website here: https://w-e-i.org/
