Today was just beautiful--temps in the upper 60's with partly cloudy skies. Finally a day we could get something accomplished outside of the house.
This morning John worked in the shop finishing up some assembly. JD will not need him next week, so he will now have some time to get started on his projects. While John was in the shop, I worked in the basement sorting through my canning supplies and checking to see what we had on hand and if any additional jars or lids will be needed for putting up the summer harvest.
Following lunch, John and I tackled the house garage. We cleaned off all the shelves, sorting, organizing, and throwing out what was no longer of any use. We actually ended up with some empty shelves--probably won't be long before they're filled again. Next job was to clean the floor. John hooked up the garden hose and we wet down the floor, did some scrubbing, and then swept the water outside. Floor looks nice and clean now.
We were just finishing up with the garage when Matt and Sam stopped over. They were on their way home from shingling the garage the guys had been working on this past week. Showers are in the forecast for most of next week, so Matt thought it might be wise to get the job done today. Sam can't stop over without challenging Pop Pop to a game of pig. After a couple of games, Pop Pop is still king of the court.
We have started this blog to keep family and friends updated with news and photos about our lives in both Minnesota and Texas. We hope you will check in often and enjoy sharing our experiences.
