Hi there.....

So kind of you to stop by....I do enjoy the company.

I'm beginning to believe that it will rain every time my daughter and J come up here. They came up yesterday, J with his chainsaw to cut a number of trees down. Well, he did get the dying eucalyptus cut down but that's all. While daughter and I were at an appointment it hailed and rain at the house just after the eucalyptus got cut down. Geeeeesh. They'll be coming back this weekend so we can burn that big pile out in the meadow (field, whatever) that we tried to burn back in December. We WILL burn it, come hell or highwater. I'm buying fuel today just to make sure.
I enjoy having family up here. It gives me the incentive to get off my duff and get something accomplished. Maybe because I have help. Trying to do everything by myself is somewhat overwhelming. I go outside and don't know where to start. I do get something done, but never anything major. Of course, sometimes the small adds up to the big, but still.....
Time to get a move on. The sun shines and I'm sure it will warm up (in the 40's now) enough to be comfortable outside. Weeds call...(they're always calling...laughing actually). Must....get....something.....done.

Back up to the high 80's here today, I think! At least the garden is looking good, with that and the roses things are good so far!

Glad you are getting some use out of the youngsters...it's good to have them to help out! Sometimes a fresh outlook can help to organize things a bit, I imagine!

HJ...the youngsters are supposed to be coming up this weekend and guess what...it's supposed to rain on Saturday! Dag nab it! the evil genius is supposed to sleep in the pop-up but I don't think that's going to happen.
