These are the days we wish would last forever.
Hot days spent around the sparkling blue pool water, green grass filled with Timmy's soccer balls, baseball bats, and a garden that actually has decided to share a bit of its beauty with us. The new pond has provided a home for a frog who arrived about a week ago, and a spot for the chick-a-Dee's, cardinals, robins, and blue jays to bath in. The towering pines provide just the right amount of shade so even when the temperatures hit 90 degrees like they did yesterday, it feels comfortable here. Just when you think life can't get any better the newspaper arrives with the dreaded "Back-to-School" Sales and remind me that these days are short and should be savored.
Timmy enjoyed a class last week at Ada Park called Back Yard Bugs, and I managed to get through another birthday without getting too depressed about my expanding waist line and demising years. Growing older is not for sissy's but it beats the alternative!
Meanwhile the boys are having fun replacing deck boards, building a new arbor for the front garden, and replacing wood on the third stall. I've begun singing..." construction junction what's the function????? "Father and son building together- what a cool sight. Please pass the drill-hehehehe
That's all for now from our little corner of Cascade.
