Hi!
Whew I've been busy since we returned Monday evening. My husband and I decided to stay an extra day until Monday after family and friends left Sat and Sun. Monday late morning we decided to load my SUV then still have time to do some things inside then relax on front porch before leaving. Well when we decided to leave I discovered I had done another dumb thing. Nope didn't forget to put my purse in car this time. When I opened the car windows when we loaded things earlier (because it was a very warm day) I forgot to turn off the ignition key. Yep! You guessed it. Drained battery and wouldn't start. We looked at each other thinking no way! And cabin is in a remote rural area. I called the cabin contractor who lives a bit away to ask where to call for a jump. He's a nice guy and said no problem he'd come to help. He did. Car started right up. While we left the engine running to charge battery we invited him inside to see what we've done so far setting up and decorating. He ended up staying close to an hour. So we got a late start returning home .. a 2 1/2 hr drive.
Yesterday was busy with laundry from last week and weekend plus catching up on things to do around house here and today the same. I'm finally getting caught up. Well that's my story of the second dumb thing I did leaving cabin. Geez Louise!
LB, Good to hear your riding the bike and slowly coming along good. You did a lot of binge watching. Sounds relaxing.
I remember last year when you were deciding to sign another years lease or not. You looked at a variety of different places to move to. I remember the single house you liked a lot but it had not so pleasant stairs. You tried your best last year. Maybe a miracle will happen for you this year. Hope so.
Phyl, To answer your, "Huh? Put the grill in shed to keep bears away" .. yes the smell of food on grill and if any food or trash left in open will attract bear(s). There's black bear in the mountains at cabin. The guy who drilled for our well water said they used vegetable oil on the pole for drilling. The next morning they saw bear paw/claw prints in the dirt around pole and holes where it dug. We saw them too when we arrived that morning. Smelling the vegetable oil attracted it. Interesting right? I was going to hang a few bird feeders but the news in the area is they are also attracting bears so no bird feeders will I put up! lol
Lani, Beautiful memorial post. Thank you for sharing.
Well time to clean bird baths here and fill bird feeders. No bears at home here!
Take care and SED
