A Weekend in Dragomer

So far it has been a very relaxing weekend. Meta arrived home yesterday (Friday) around 4 or 5pm. I have been so relaxed that there has been no need to watch the clock. Yesterday after the big breakfast, reviewing our court hearing papers, visiting the local grocery market and cooking the Serbian Beans, we didn’t do much else but chat and relax.

The terrace is a very nice place to pass the time. It is on the north side of the house (the front of the house faces west), and the terrace has lovely views of the hills all around. The neighbors’ houses are packed pretty tightly, but each house has nice garden space and most of the families grow flowers and some vegetables, too.

It has been sunny, humid and about 75 degrees for the past couple of days, but the weather is supposed to turn stormy this afternoon. We are going to a large get-together this afternoon. I understand there will be about thirty people there, including Janez, Meta, Daša and Uroš. I will take my camera and try to get photos of the fun.

Tomorrow is another family event, with brothers, sisters, cousins, etc. Janez has shown me several albums of photos that include many of these people over the years. He is a very worldly fellow and has lived and worked all over the world. I am really enjoying hearing the stories of his travels, from the US to Russia and from England to Africa.

As Monday approaches I am getting more excited to finish the forest business, although Monday will not be the end. I am hoping that we will finalize the re-registration of the current heirs of the forest on Monday. Then we will meet with Albreht Rajko, a potential buyer of the property. I am hoping that he will make an offer at that time. Also on Monday, we will meet with a notary and formally notify the adjacent property owners of the desire to sell the property. I believe that notice of intent to sell must be published for a month or so before we can finalize any purchase.

After Monday, I hope to do some traveling. Janez has picked up some new work, so I may travel a bit with Uroš instead. We’ll see. Everything is still flexible!
