Yesterday an osprey flew over our yard. Not the best photo, but that fella could really move. I got about five pictures of blank sky before I managed to get this one. Ha!
I'm not sure what he/she was doing here... they generally cruise the rivers for fish.
But I can tell you this, all the frigging crows left
lickety-split!
I like that.
We tested out the Jenn Aire in the cabinet.
Perfect fit!
Some sanding.
A bit of putty... final sanding, staining and a coat of finish is scheduled for today.
:-)
T brought the counter top I wanted last night.
We hauled it out to the patio to see how it would look.
I am very happy and excited. We wanted solid oak, and it is but we are staining it a nice medium walnut.
The counter top is sort of a dark slate.
Ooh! Ooh!
T just called to say that he's going to bring the rest of what we need to do the counter top and help with it today! Have you ever seen a grown woman wiggle like a puppy?
Oh yeah... I'm wiggling!
On another front... I have finally won the war with the weeds. All that remains are daily patrols to keep them out.
My day lilies and gailardia are in bloom.
The vinca is crazy healthy.
The homestead is looking good.
All that remains is this patch of weeds that belong to the city along the street.
They own them, but take no responsibility for them.
Guess I'll go fire up the weed eater.
If I don't, you can bet they will migrate into my nice clean yard.
No way Jose!
"My Choice" today was to work on the yard and outdoor kitchen.
Not exactly a relaxing day,
but I like to get things done.
And compared to my "to do list" for this coming week,
it's a walk in the park.
I'm trying to get my new name, address, etc. all up to date with everyone... Motor Vee, S. S., I.R.S. and Postal. You would not believe all the hoops I have to jump through!
"Postal" is about what it driving me to...
but that's another post.
I hope your weekend was grand!
What did you do?
