Catching up on a busy summer!

I know I haven't posted for a long time. I will try and do a little catch up. The pictures are not in order as they happened, but you'll get a highlight of what's been going on.



Lee and I went to Seiku to go fishing. We met Teri and Bill there, they had already been there for awhile and I think they caught all the fish. Lee wasn't so lucky, even though he caught some nice silvers, he was not able to keep them, they have their rules on what to keep. We had a nice time anyway. I don't have any pictures.

Jodi, Kaylee and Connor at our house for a birthday dinner. They all had birthdays this month.

A nice doe in front of the house. We have seen a buck also and their fawn, it still had spots on it.

We added some more cement to the RV pad. We had to put in a new gate. Since it is a large gate and we had so much trouble with the other one they came up with a different idea to make it lighter. They used a metal cattle fence gate and attached the boards to it. It looks great from the out side and works perfect.


Lee and Doug working on it.


Chance came over and helped Grandpa. He was a great help and worked hard.


Lee and Chance removing some grass where we were adding the cement. They moved it to a spot where we had a garden at one time. It is growing great.


We also put new gravel down. The guy that delivered it did a great job unloading it. Really saved a lot of work spreading it around.

This is a long story, I'll give you the short version. We had to replace all the entry door locks, one just fell apart. Lee was outside and I went out to talk to him and shut the door behind me, the new ones stay locked, the old ones didn't. The girls didn't have new keys and of course the battery in the garage door opener was dead, after ten years, perfect timing. We tried every door and window, we do a good job at keeping everything locked up. So this is the window in the garage that Lee broke so we could get in.
This is where we put the new cement.

Big cement truck, messed up our new gravel, we should have waited for that.


Finished product, looks great and we even have room for the basketball hoop.
We got lots of projects done that we have been putting off. We had a great summer and now it is almost over. Went by way to fast.

Your back yard projects look great. Always feels so good to do something like that.
