Good morning!!!



Do you have any "Summer Projects" planned ? Of course. There are always projects going on around here, lol.


Are you doing them or having them done ? DH and I do everything
Done:
New batteries for the solar system are installed and hooked up.
New battery box is built.

Need to still do
DH need to finish installing the new water pump.
DH needs to finish the solar panel wiring.
We need to cut lots of wood for next winter.
We need to build another wood storage rack.
We need to build a fence around the back hill that the cows keep destroying. Then we can seed it and maybe get some grass to grow
We need to pull out briar bushes.
We need to do a tiered garden and build a set of stairs going down to the house.
Finish painting the shed.
I want to paint all of our fence posts....so the bees stop boring in the raw wood
We need to seal the last 300 feet of our driveway...but I think that will be a Fall project.


There is more....but that is enough for now

Just grilled and drizzled with garlic butter. Less is more with lobster!

Yes, several times - I don't care what I look like when eating lobster!

Thanks Karla.

Have a great Friday (or Thursday or Saturday, whatever day it is)
