Some days are “just like that”, I thought as I looked out the window this afternoon. One of our most favorite places in our backyard just came tumbling down (with a little bit of accidental help from our riding lawnmower, the driver of which shall remain anonymous!). Why is it that when there is so much work to be done, there can always be “more work?” Anyway, tomorrow being Father’s Day, we are having a party here (of course!) and what kind of party would it be without a project? So the “FATHERS” with help from Father Doyle will rebuild the pergola,( that is if they want grapes later on in the summer!) And I know that all the “MOTHERS” will be cheering on all those FATHERS (because we love those grapes!).In other news today, I started cleaning out the greenhouse, and it sort of all fell apart too, not the structure, but cleaning a little soon led to cleaning out the barrels that we’ve had for heat storage for over 20 years. Doyle pulled some out a few months ago (or has it been a year already?), and the rest of the steel barrels really MUST GO!!! What a mess! It’s very obvious that we’ve lived here for over 30 years. Even though (some people might not realize it), we have done repairs over the years and upkeep, it’s truly never done. That’s what Heaven will be for, I guess. REST!
