Saturdays

I just love Saturdays, especially when they are nice and warm and there's work to do outside!! 2 Saturdays ago, I was over at Nelson's (Kelly was gone for a couple of days) and started raking all the old grass off the yard, then we had a hamburger fry for lunch! Was SO AWESOME to finally grill burgers and enjoy eating them outside! Eating burgers inside just isn't quite the same! Anyhow, after lunch Tamera and I took the jeep to the neighbors to pick up some fencing supplies and check out a water tank for the horse. Back at the house, Kelly had called and was back and needing to be picked up from work, so picked him up and then we all went out to help Nelson build a bigger pasture for the horse! It was definitely one of the better days of the year, so far! :) Mostly just because I could be working outside barefoot! 

Now this last Saturday we were in Kenora at Kelly's folks. And they were needing to get a spot cleared out in the woods ('bush', as they call it here in the north country) for a septic field. So Kelly got to spend all day in the bobcat or trackhoe, which he absolutely LOVES! And I got to cut and load firewood. Plus I walked up the hill to where we were working a couple times, so by the end of the day I was starting to feel a little sore! But it was totally worth it! For supper we cooked over the fire. Mom made potatoes in her dutch oven and I made blueberry cobbler in mine, which ended up getting very well-done so had to scrape off some of the blackness! Ben had wanted wieners so that was the meat! It was a great way to end an already great day!

Now it's been raining all day today, and I think it's suppose to rain tomorrow some too, but I'm hoping for sunshine and warm days again very, very soon!!

    1. There are never enough warm days here! So you live outside when it finally is!! :) PG life hasn't been bad at all, altho I can't say I just love it, but sure can't complain! Other than I woke up at 12 last night and didn't go back to sleep until 6!! So that better not be happening on a regular basis!!!
