DG, owner/roaster, shares her roasting time with many crazy-cool outdoor activities!
Anytime, day or night, she jumps to her pager for fast response to structural fires, wildland fires, Haz-Mat situations, and helicopter landings. A lot of DG’s life is, if not responding, is giving up her weekends and countless hours to training.
DG can hardly resist the pull of the Columbia River. Her one tatoo tells the story of a six week expedition on a dugout canoe that changed the course of her life journey, on a quest to return salmon to northern waters again. https://youtu.be/IY62Cw9EJds
“Go Outside and Play” is DG’s favorite mantra. Anything outdoors is what she loves to do!
When not roasting, DG can often be found in the garden with hundreds of heirloom tomatoes, peppers, onions - organic food DG makes into her famous Hot Pepper Jelly and tasty Salsa.
By far, winter is DG’s favorite season. You can find her cross-country skiing along the banks of the Columbia River, leaving snow angels in her wake. No doubt, the vestiges of her Norwegian heritage.
DG can also be found in her kayak, paddling the beautiful Upper Columbia at any time of year with her husband Clifford, and sleeping in the bed of her pickup for quick stays at local campgrounds or in the wild. Camping is DG’s favorite vacation, whether for 12 hours or 12 days, she loves to find just the right place to make her morning coffee.
