I don't have time or the energy to figure out something to post that requires research or current photographs, but here's a recap of what's going on today.

The poppies are in bloom. This is what they looked like in 2008, and they look the same right now. They don't bloom every year because sometimes it gets hot too fast.



We went to town today and bought a new picnic table to replace the old wooden one at the red cabin. The paint on the old one is all weathered and rough and needs a lot of work. The new one is plastic, so will be easy to maintain, and folds flat for storage in the winter. Here's the old one.



We had to assemble the new table, it's got the seating benches attached, and the instructions were very clear, including telling us which steps required two adults to be completed. It wasn't complicated, but I wouldn't want to try it without good instructions.

Time to cook supper. See you all tomorrow.
