Looks like we are headed back into another hot dry spell, starting with a gradual warm up today.  Boots has had his first breakfast, and is just fascinated with this new lookout position at the desk where I sit at the keypad.  It is now time to protect me from the dreaded sparrows!  It seems these birds have more nerve than his arch enemies the robins.  The sparrows for instance will land on the branches within six inches of the window, almost driving him insane.  This requires his utmost attention and diligence to detail, after all they may be able to penetrate this flimsy piece of glass and get to me!  Sometimes they arrive in swarms chasing bugs, you should see Boots' head weave and bob around then.  I think next year I shall have to put out a humming bird feeder, outside this window for his entertainment!  Boots has now gone to check out the west side of the rig and lawn area.  After all the robins are also back looking for worms!!
  Today is definitely going to be a great day, the sun is streaming through the trees into my window.  I believe Donald will arrive later today.  I must get over to his place, and cut his small piece of grass.  I believe he is going to bring up his small fishing boat.  Cutting the grass before his arrival will save us from moving it one time before he parks it.
  It might also be a work bee day.  Kinda like an old fashioned barn raising.  Only this will be out with the old deck and in with the new deck.  "All hands on deck", lol.  My sense of humour kicking in this morning.  In all seriousness, it will get done today, or tomorrow, but it will get done.  Those of us that are up here will pitch in, kinda like a little family.  We do what we can to help out, when we can.  There may be even a few wobbly pops involved, just to keep ones bodily fluids replenished.  One would never want to get dehydrated!  Right Stan?  You could always check and verify this with Barb, provided it was on your off duty time, hahahaha....Just a bit of family humour...
  Like I was saying, some deck building.  This will give us another deck in my neighbourhood, (this isn't Mr. Roger's) to go an sit on and practice Building the Simple life.................................
