redoing the blog????

I surely do not know what I am doing and I am too tired to finish this tonight.

Don't ride that lawnmower until all passengers have gotten off.

Trying to find the opening in the rain gutter ground pipe.  This snake

has lived there for a while and frequents the fish pond area.

Gazebo Update, digging holes, mixing cement, lots of Gatorade

This is the next day.  More post hole with cement and metal

attachments locked in.  Butch is overseeing the work.

Next project, the GAZEBO

Dora appeared with friends for the final act and it was Broadway in St. Louis.

Quite an attractive, red eyed family.

One suggestion for installing your own water softener is...

When soldering copper pipes it is best to check that indeed

all joints were soldered.  If not, water does tend spurt with amazing

speed and quantity when it is turned back on.  What's the next

project, Laura?

What to do on a hot day.

Geoff, Alli, and the mechanical fish are cooling off.

Do you know your ABCs?

We needed a new water softener, soooooooooooooooooooo...

Here is the new one, waiting.

So many pipes.

OK, the old one has been disconnected.

Always need fire.  It turned out that all  joints were not

soldered, but instead epoxy was used.  Mighty strong epoxy at that.

OK, so we are really going to the dogs.

We start out this way but, it is musical 'beds' ALL night long.

Who is that man taking our trash?
