The welcome sign is out, I
even replaced the door bell below it (another of the mini fixes I've had
to do). |
Part of the water sports of the area,
Max checked it out, but only Kathy was interested in participating. |

The hot tub is still a
favorite. |
This is one batch of many out of the
gardens, we've given away more than we've eaten. |

Rearranged the living room with the new
coffee table. |
Made the family room over into
basic black. |
We sold off the tan recliners,
they were too deep, three of these work much better. |
Patricia working on her new
laptop, multiple projects. |

Ah, please let me in... |
Finally got our new frame with head and
foot boards. |

Patricia has been expanding her Sarah
Moon collection, getting samples from overseas, as well as local. |

You can just make out the
sunflower 3/4 up the tree. |
And Haley pulling it down to
her level. |
Patricia found two of those
old children plastic pools, one for the kids by the hot tub, and one for
the dogs, which Kathy loves splashing in. |
Just late summer yard pics. |

The roses got very leggy. |
To gauge the wind here the
base is full of water, I have to lean into to shift it at all. Well, the
wind toppled it over and dragged it half way across the yard. |
Went to a day bed in the spare room
which opened up the floor space. When Ryan and Megan were here last,
found it was a little small for two, so got an inflatable that filled
the floor space but was much more comfortable for two. |

I finally got my flagpole, found it on
eBay for $16.00 oppossed to the hundreds I've seen elsewhere. I'm going
to have to put more concrete at the base, secondary to the wind again. |
Kids enjoyed painting rocks
for a project. |
A praying mantis, we had a
crop of small frogs one week. The garage field mice seem to have all
cleared out though. |

Probably the last major project of the
year, we pulled out the brass edging and put in concrete edging in the
front. |

Patricia's new old toy, bought from the
neighbor, for 270,000 miles it works quite well for moving Patricia's
furniture projects around. Currently sitting in the driveway with our
newer washer/dryer in the bed. We replaced the dishwasher last month.
Refrigerator next. |
Our street with the water towers at the
end...
