Sunday stuff




Yesterday was another full day. Housework, lawnwork, writing, cherry picking, hosting company and even a trip to the mountains for geoacaching.

Laura and the gang showed up to try out the new pool.

While Laura and I dangled our tootsies in the doggie pool, kids and dad splashed in the big pool. Water escaped, but no big deal.

A lot more needs to escape before it's not functional.

I think I will take my lawnmower repairman Tony's advice: drain it, refill it and work with the sides. Tony thinks it's level enough. His vast experience with a similar pool demonstrated a need to nurture those sides as the water gets deeper.

So, we'll try that.

In the meantime, pool action turned to 4-wheel action and then the obligatory family pictures.

The Laumatias, plus cousin Bishop, gathered around the Scotch pine in the front yard for this group shot.

Laura, Justine, Bishop, Jacob, Sefo and Grace.
