steamy...

the weekend was better done on the inside...
but we did get a quick run around town (which doesn't take long) on Saturday doing errands...
(paying the water bill and checking the mail)

an old carriage house...
one of 2 left in town that I know of...

but I am afraid, not for long...

we had Doug and his girlfriend here yesterday...
and Craig's friend, Ben, showed up...

and these 4 kids and the old man were in and out, in and out...
and Charlie (the dog) kept barking...
and barking and barking...

our funeral home on Main Street...

a large gum tree fell in the wind storm we had about 10 days ago now...

lots of fire wood...

the sounds of chain saws, mowers, birds and cicada are common these days...

it sure looks different...
that tree provided a lot of shade in the warmer months...
but the house is so pretty...
the boy man who lives here is a vet...
and was on out little league team way back when...
dinosaurs roamed the earth...
he grew up to be a dandy dad and husband...
soldier and community worker...

anyway, about the weekend...
I mowed Friday night and some Saturday...
ours was done and I mowed the front third of the lots across the street...
still cleaning up that mess over there and the guy just doesn't have time to do it all...
so we helped out a bit...
just enough to let him get caught up and all...
he would do the same for us...
yesterday, I was ready to give my dog away...
all the barking,  he was a nervous wreck...
I don't think he has ever seen that door open and close that often ever...
and of course, he thinks he's security around here...
we did have one baby go to its home...
Craig and Ben delivered that one...
got to get photos of the rest and get them listed...
they are ready...
and that means when they are gone, the kitchen work will begin again...
but will wait until the humidity is lower...
so, that's the latest...
have a great week!
