I was up at the crack of dawn this morning
thanks to Bing.......
He was in one of his 'racing' modes
He flew up to the bed
He flew over Gwendolyn
He flew over me
I got up to check the time
6:30 a.m.
Once again it was so calm
outside so I decided
to put the coffee on
and enjoy the quiet of the morning
I took my coffee and camera
outside and sat in my rocking chair
Even at that early hour the
wind was up
The birds were having their breakfast
under the pine tree
and
At the birdfeeder
and
At the niger seed feeder
Bing came outside with me
He was in my sight at all times!
I went to town later
Did my thing at Curves
then
headed to the grocery store
When I got back on the island
I filled my bike basket
Had a bag on each handle bar
plus a long plain bag of popcorn which I held on to with a few fingers
SLOW BUT SURE I MADE MY WAY FROM THE FERRY
THROUGH THE FOREST
DOWN THE PATH
TO HOME
i even managed to stay on my bike!!
I did a bit of painting
just a bit
Helped Joe move containers from the bunkie
to the new storage shed
Didn't Joe do an outstanding job!!!!!!!!!!!!
I moved the outdoor chairs
from the front
yard to the back yard
Tomorrow I will sand them
down and get
them ready for painting
RED IS THE COLOUR
Joe was reorganizing his tool shed and box
When one moves from a house with a
BASEMENT
to a cottage as a permanent home
it takes 'skill' to find a place for everything
Mr. Bing wanted to come outside
WIND WIND WIND
Man did the weather ever change
The wind was out of the west
Had to move furniture around
Had to take plants and move them off the deck
Came in the cottage to start dinner
There they were
Can't tell you how much they love their blanket
This evening I looked out the window
There he was
The fisherman is in a
ROW BOAT
He was out in front of the cottage last night too
He comes from the other side of the river
Imagine rowing a boat back home
in the dark!!!!!!!!!
ANOTHER GOOD DAY
Did you ride your Electra cruiser?! So much work painting all those chairs!! I don't envy you and I like to paint sometimes. I'm a little over it at present as I am painting walls!! But they are my very own walls!!!!! Yeah!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely day in Canadian Land. I hope you didn't drop one
ReplyDeletelittle morsel of popcorn, it's like gold to some people.
Everything is looking great. Can't wait to see the chairs.

I agree, RED...they will look very inviting. Good little bed time story mom! SB
ReplyDeleteWow what an active couple you both are !!! For sure there is always something to do....a home is always perpetually a work in progress be it outside or inside. I feel really sleepy looking at the picture of Bing and Gwendolyn snuggled up together.....just like I do with her :o) !! Yes she who sleeps with dogs !! lol
