Summer Days

Lazy summer days, yah right!! We had company this weekend, they left yesterday morning. Lots of cooking,eating and visiting. I had made a couple of apple pies, my grandmothers recipe, to use up last years apples from the deep freeze, well those are gone, and must say they were tasty.
We took our visitors out to see a couple of the lakes in our area, of which there are many. Walked on the beach and had a nice time.


This is a picture of Kehiwan Lake, which is about 10 miles from our house. No sandy beach at this lake on this side, but it is nice and deep for boating, fishing, skiing, etc. There is a sandy beach on the other side. We also visited Whitney Lake and took a nice walk on the beach there. I have photos of that lake on the Webshots album, so will not bother posting any here.
Spent yesterday doing the usual household clean-up that seems to come after having company, it was windy and cool out so didn't feel like working outside.
We have been looking into doing some housesitting and have had a couple of opportunities; although none that have fit into our current plans. We could have gone to Belize in June; but at that time Roys passport had not come yet, and also it would have interfered with our winter plans for Mexico, so had to turn that one down ( couldn't have been away from home for what would have been 10 months). We also had a chance to go to Vermont in November for just a couple of weeks; but as we plan to be in Mexico by October, we had to turn that one down also, would like to go to Vermont sometime; but not enough to put off our trip south!!!! Would be nice to find somewhere to h.sit on the way down to Mexico, it would be a pleasant break in the trip.
Well time to get off of here and get something done.
