Pat and Coop came to town.  Had a great visit, made some plum pickle and chili sauce, and toured around a bit.  Here’s Pat painting up a storm – the interior trim for the windows and doors.  She is an excellent painter, and did an amazing amount over a 2 day stretch.

And here is Coop and I putting on some exterior window trim. It is a bit finicky as it goes over the stucco. I hope to get this (or at least most of it) done before it gets cold.

Shades of Putin?  Drove the ATV up a ramp and into the truck to take it to the dealer for some pre-winter servicing. It is 9 years old but only has 525kms and is in great shape.
