the weather has been nice

We seem to go from hot to cool these days .. it was hot and now it’s been cooler and I’ve been sporting a jacket!  It feels like fall although I have to admit it’s wonderful weather to sit outside in my lounger and enjoying reading my books.  I have read several books this summer.

not sure if this is a good sign or not but my sunflowers are starting to bloom and their going to be beautiful.  I’m sure the birds are going to enjoy them as much as I do!

hubby’s garden has finally taken off and we’ve been getting lots of cucumbers and I’ve put several zucchini and summer squash in the freezer for this winter.  Our tomatoes are late this year and we finally got our first one this past week.  We have lots of green ones but just one that has ripened enough.

There is a good thing to staying put in one place all summer long and that is hubby enjoys his garden.  He missed that part of not having a home that stays in one place .. yet we both yearn for the day when we can start moving around again.  Although we have made commitments to stick around for a year.  So it’s going to be awhile.

What Volunteers do on their time off?

We had a surprise going away party for one of the volunteer couple here at LWCC.  Bob and Sandy has put in many wonderful years of service  and has finally decided due to health reason to give it up.  We wish you the best as you finish your retirement days out in sunny Florida!

Land dispute!

Here at the campground there has been a bit of land dispute going on and it’s been effecting our dear friend Wanda.

20130724_145355

It was decided that some of her concrete patio was on someone else’s property so it had to be cut off and that meant that her camper had to be pulled off so the big slab of concrete could be removed.  Hubby used his truck and the wonderful workers here at LWCC assisted in all the packing up and putting backk

20130724_14540620130724_14541820130724_14543120130724_145443

Well these pictures show the guys thinking about working??

20130724_14551120130724_145515

Lots of thought thinking going on before the actual work began?

20130724_14553520130724_14560320130724_145738

the work finally began and it didn’t take them long and all was removed and Wanda’s camper pulled out and the big machine was brought in.

of course Wanda, Hailey and I were there to supervise and make sure it was done right

Wow it’s a Hot one!

Were still at our home on wheels that is parked at the lake.  It’s been one hot week with the temps in the 90’s and the humidity steaming!  Today is unbearable outside.  Even for me who enjoys sitting outside basking in the warmth! 

7-19-13

Although I’m not complaining as I prefer the heat over the cold!  Although I do not like being confined to the AC in our nice and cool home.  I prefer being outside lounging in my chair and reading a good romance book.  Speaking of which I have been on a roll again this week.  I have read 2 books since Monday and I’m starting my 3rd!  I have read about 8 books in the past month and half and last winter I didn’t even get one full book read!  Hmmm .. yep .. I’m enjoying rest and relaxation whenever I can.

It’s looking to be a relaxing weekend with no grand kids and I plan to enjoy it by being lazy and doing nothing but reading a good book.  Hope your all have a great weekend where ever you may be.
