Moving on
August is half over, already! I noticed the other day that the leaves on the maples are already beginning to turn, a bright red and orange color. I think then of the 7 cords of wood we have coming and have to stack...and sigh...
But, I am also very grateful to have that method of heating our home this winter as the winters here can be brutal and with the cost of oil these days, well...
Summer has winded down quite nicely actually. We spent a week out to camp and it rained and rained and rained some more, but hubby and I did get to enjoy an evening out on the lake in his old row boat and the kids did more camping and then spent the weekend at another campground in NH with family members. I would dare say those two are CAMPED right out this summer, but they sure did have a good time. These are the memories I wish for them to cherish, always!
Now I am planning a short get away with the oldest who is soon to be 16 in one short week! We want to go shopping out of town and then stay over night somewhere and relax and hopefull "enjoy" each others company!
The younger one will stay home and help out Dad with the continuing construction of our new garage. It's HUGE!
Otherwise, I guess autumn is nearly upon us with school soon to start again and another summer gone.
