A hot sunny month with a few thunderstorms and heavy rain. No smoke all month. Busy with visits from 2 cousins, several social golf games and dinners with friends. Interviewed a house/dog-sitting couple for our Japan trip.

Decided to install motorized screens on the porch which should happen in mid October. Companies were hungry for the business. Ordered a new stove as half of our 9 year old stove stopped working and it was not worth fixing. Got a trailer full of old cedar and fir (clear and straight grain) that was pulled from a demolished building some 40 years ago. $65 🙂 Not yet sure what I will do with it but I am sure inspiration will strike. And decided to build an annex onto the equipment shelter as the latter was not quite big enough. Just need to add some eavestrough and tart it up a bit.
