September 2009 update

There was about 2 truckloads of beautiful topsoil hauled away. Brian has seeded the lawn with EcoGrass – a low water use grass that grows about 6 inches a year. Maybe that’s why it took so long to come up?

Perfect day for celebrations

My brother Tom and his family came over to celebrate his (XX) birthday. Cate is almost 5 and Michael is thoroughly 2. After these shots he found the croquet mallets and was in toddler heaven.
The evening was perfect for late August – about 27C, no wind, no mosquitoes, and amazingly, no yellow jackets/hornets! Divine.
