"They"say change is the only thing we can count on. So might as well embrace it I say. The From Fear to Love seminar was cancelled due to insufficient sign ups. Very disappointing at first But then Carol suggested coming anyways. So I will do that. Great chance to make some new friends. I'll survey some building projects they have on the dream board and relax. Then the last couple days of my September holiday will be at Trails End with my bus and horse. Yeh.
Sister Debra and I drove out to visit with Trevor and Karen Harriot south of Indian Head. Several years ago I supervised the build of a cabin for them and now they are considering an addition. They treated us to lunch and we bantered around lots of ideas and I left them with a list of things to do. Wonderful visit.
We then headed up to Wynyard north of Indian Head and we drove on some roads we had never been on before. Lovely country. Spent the trip gabbing about everything under the sun. A lemon pie and a sour cream pie waited for us at home. I simply put an order in to Mom for the latter and presto! There it was.
Today we spent the morning chainsawing trees
One thing led to another after I got the chainsaw started and we ended up with quite a pile of brush.
Stopping for a rest Dad who just turned 92, Mom turned 87 September 7 Debra and me.
This is Dad not waiting for me and the chainsaw. He used a swede saw and loped off a limb from a town tree. This was after he crawled up the ladder to find dirt and leaves in the eaves trough. He did this while I was on the other side of the house talking to Mom and Deb. When I came back to the front there he was holding a pot that lacked a handle. I asked "What's that? A pot to pee in?" Then he told me why he wanted it. To take up the ladder to clean out the trough. I went up and did it and realised how did he know there was dirt in there? He confessed he had been up there behind my back. Heesh. Once again- we count our blessings.
