Bees As part of the sale of the house we acquired a bee hive. Robert’s father, L.C., kept bees in South Carolina and we still have some of his honey, although our supply is dwindling. If I put aside the certainty of being stung, beekeeping seems like an ideal hobby. Helping the pollinators, who are very much under pressure, supports gardens and agriculture. L.C. would rent out his hives to farmers, placing them in their fields for months and then picking them up at the end of the season. When we visited him in warmer months, he would take us on his rounds to check that the hives were doing fine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/27905882-3f7c-4409-91af-ba4809be865e/DSC04075.jpg Life on Chula Vista - Bees - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/b83f5e7d-1a89-4fc8-a579-0a60b2d3d612/DSC04045.jpg Life on Chula Vista - Bees - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/1757285207009-TT1RSA38KS8O9E3QP2PC/DSC04106.jpg Life on Chula Vista - Bees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/1757285212681-FUIELKZWCJF9JJAV5GLP/DSC04166.jpg Life on Chula Vista - Bees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/d3918f7e-5083-44e6-8463-8ef3263010ea/IMG_0177.jpeg Life on Chula Vista - Bees - Make it stand out ball of wax https://www.chulavistacasa.com/life-on-chula-vista/blog-post-title-one-zwse8-n3ltt monthly 0.5 2025-09-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/cc198355-5832-43be-9349-ec3766bbfcfe/53.jpeg Life on Chula Vista - A little bit of background and first project - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/6f75007a-62f2-40d4-a2d5-0e6a590e3d7c/IMG_0072.jpg Life on Chula Vista - A little bit of background and first project - Make it stand out beautiful chickens we declined to adopt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/8b368718-df8b-46f1-ba11-5457d98d60f4/IMG_0157.jpeg Life on Chula Vista - A little bit of background and first project - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.chulavistacasa.com/life-on-chula-vista/tag/beekeeping monthly 0.5 https://www.chulavistacasa.com/roberts-photos daily 0.75 2026-04-03 https://www.chulavistacasa.com/roberts-photos/home monthly 0.5 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/1a76c715-cae3-4f74-a99a-418e825dd993/1_road.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out This is the road in front of our house. It looks like we must be miles out of town in some remote area. Instead, we’re in the city limits and a couple miles from downtown. A lot of Santa Fe roads look like this, as it turns out, and I don’t know if it’s just priorities in the face of a lack of city funds or if it’s all about aesthetics. And I don’t care. In the background you get a hint of why I don’t care. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/ab08f323-1f5a-4d55-bc7b-f66329de1755/2_house_from_outside_greenhouse.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out This is the back corner of our home. This style and color scheme is the rule in Santa Fe: the houses deliberately blend into the landscape. The splash of turquoise is also common. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/0a4666d9-3039-4e3f-9aa9-cef7313b4521/3_panorama_side_s.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out So why by a house on a gravel road, with scrubby trees for landscaping? Views and some space to play in, more or less. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/8dc77477-3314-475c-bc69-3fd2bb959617/4_panorama_deck.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out From the back deck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/96c66143-a205-41a5-a7c7-d45336a5a602/5_big_window.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out The view from inside isn’t bad, either. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/814b81e7-53ee-4b57-9c04-5b895bb2332f/6_arroyo_s.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out This arroyo runs through the back of our property. Usually it looks like this, but on rare occasion it’s full of fast-moving water. So we’re told. For now it’s a footpath for people, dogs, and deer, mostly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/938992d6-4337-4932-9317-2c8a57cb8f4b/7_greenhouse_and_woodpile.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out Our house came with a greenhouse! We’re learning about it slowly. We added a little solar panel on the roof to power the fans (I guess the previous owners ran an extension cord). It’s unseasonably warm here right now, and we regularly see temperatures over 100 degrees in the greenhouse. It’s supposed to cool down tomorrow, but later this year we’ll be trying out the greenhouse shade the previous owners left for us. The woodpile is not so useful as we had planned. We were going to turn the gas fireplace into a wood fireplace, but that renovation got ditched along with almost all the rest. We do have a chiminea, though, and now we have enough wood for perhaps a decade. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/6f375614-e312-4833-b4db-3063587e19fc/8_garden_guard.jpg Robert's Photos - Home - Make it stand out Kelly made this lovely gal to watch over the side garden area. She made this off-site, but now has a pottery studio with kiln here at home. All of that is starting to make it feel like we’re really at home here. It’s a nice feeling. https://www.chulavistacasa.com/roberts-photos/reflections monthly 0.5 2026-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/f20227b9-f387-4b3d-ba6a-c6af1e07abe8/reflections.jpeg Robert's Photos - Reflections - Make it stand out Kelly and I were sitting in Nuckolls Brewery & Taproom in the Railyard when I looked up and saw this. Reflected light is often interesting and if it’s reflected from a curved surface, particularly an irregular curved surface, it’s really interesting. Those are reflections of paintings on the wall, and yes the clouds are at the bottom … because the reflection is upside down. If you’re not familiar with this phenomenon, try looking at a reflection in a spoon; be sure to check out both sides. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/5ecad9fe-47be-4c1b-8f66-886dd08126bd/plaza+sunset+on+blossoms.jpeg Robert's Photos - Reflections - Make it stand out Walking back from dinner on the Plaza in downtown Santa Fe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68b9c40a663304652487cd8e/ed9f7562-a44e-4602-a2cb-8abc1451eb9e/la+luz+y+el+cielo.jpeg Robert's Photos - Reflections - Make it stand out La Luz de las Noches is a winter event at the Santa Fe Botanical Garden.
