SHOWING GRANDMOTHER AROUND










We met the contractor, Bobby, and the kennel builder, Chris, up at Highwater on June 4th. Even got a picture of us "signing the contracts on the dotted line."

The kids had fun showing their grandmother "Nanny" where her guest cabin is going to be. All three men (and some teens belonging to Chris) helped stake out the kennel and big house. The trick was to find the high-ground and avoid the wet-weather creek.

"Private Property" signs were posted. The women-folk almost melted in the 90+ heat. Nobody saw a snake. It was a good day.

We went swimming afterward to cool down. Dad ripped the back of his shirt nearly off completely in the thicket (and got a very funky sunburn). And, somewhere in the forest of cedars, Dad's new pair of reading glasses are making some bugs very happy.
