The trees have bloomed, the windows are open and we are ready for some summer here. We are in full Boston/Maine trip planning mode. We purchased our Amtrak tickets for our trip between Boston and Portland and did some serious planning/looking/comparing travel book to website information yesterday.
A black cat assisted.
This is my busy season at school – one concert last week and two concerts & a field trip next week. Doug has been busy working and, apparently, chopping vegetables. Our slightly-expensive-but- totally-worth it, authentic Tupperware container keeps fresh stuff at hand.
Some of the other chopped items ended up in this very pretty spaghetti “ragu” as Doug calls it.
We bought a small table to go with our outdoor furniture yesterday. It took about 10 minutes to put together. It is the perfect size for 2 summer beverages and a plate of cheese & crackers. We tried it out not long after the project was completed and declared it the missing item from our backyard relaxation time.
A little mulching happened yesterday, too. It also took about 10 minutes.
We decided to replace our electronic thermostat yesterday because the up/down arrows have not worked for about 3 years.
This project took about 15 minutes and was much simpler than the never-ending flooring project we were doing at this time last year.
And these guys did what they do best…
Tomorrow we are meeting some of our exchange-hosting friends for lunch and will probably go for our traditional walk through the General Lutheran Cemetery and the other cemetery – just to see what (who) is new.
