Bricks

Cecile had mentioned that we got some bricks from Paul & Tara. We also had quite a few in our storage rental that Paul & Tara had given to us years ago. We moved those over onto the front walk with the rest of them. We also moved all the bricks from around the pool. Cecile & I added them up - 1600 aprx. Saturday when I was unloading some from the pickup truck I dropped 1 on my big toe. No I did not have my usual steel toed boots on. I will lose the whole nail whithin a day or two. I broke the knuckle again also. The whole toe is purple. I poked a needle up under the nail to relieve the pressure.

We got about 3" of rain last night so I won't have to sprinkle for another day or two.

Jason & Leanne moved yesterday (Monday) A truck and 1 guy came to load them up. He had to call for some more help. We took them to the airport around 5 o'clock. What an adventure.

I am also moving my compost storage. I am moving it over into the back corner of the yard. It will be a square shape instead of a rectangle. I am hoping to double the size of it. When I take the concrete sidewalk out in front of the garage this weekend, I'll use the sections (already cut) to line the bottom 4' of the sides with then I will have to put 4 x 4's and fencing up for the back sides. I hope I'll end up with another 2' of depth to this compost pile also.

I just got finished picking all the cherries. I now have about 2o gallons of Cherry wine working. I got some rhubarb from Cecile's Dad & added frozen berries fron the freezer (and my rhubarb)
That is about 3.5 gallons that is working also. The grapes suck this year. I won't get much off my vines.

Melanie's bed is done, I am just fixing up some shelves for the headboard. They will be ready by the time we leave for Colorado. Jason & Leanne got a new kitchen table. Some place we have some pictures. Cecile wants one too.
