  Sun is up!  It will be another hot day again today!  Yesterday started out a bit wet, but an hour after sunrise, the clouds parted and were gone, and there were nothing but blue sky's!  Well not quite, but a glorious day just the same.
  We met our new neighbours across the street yesterday.  They were installing their new business development sign.  Eventually they will have eight to twelve cabins, all facing an inner courtyard with covered porches.  The inner courtyard will house a gazebo, with fire pit, hot tub area, play area for children.  One corner of the property will house their home, office combination.  They plan to live on site year round.  The cabins will all be two and three bedroom units with tall vaulted ceilings, twenty four feet at the peaks.  Should look good on this site, and fit in with the park theme.
  We got permission for Aiden to practice his solo golf driving skills on their property yesterday, now that it is private land.  Even Mikkel had turns at driving his mom around, though I think he was more concerned about going back to play at the play ground next door, especially to get covered in the sand once more!  Let's see, what else we did yesterday?  The boys and I went over the procedures for draining the holding tanks and flushing the black water tank.  Practice will make perfect.  Mikkel got to use the outdoor shower. (trying to remove some excess sand)  This is an option that the manufactures could save there money on, the hose is not long enough for starters.  Grandmas bedroom/bathroom floor, ceiling, walls, were very clean after all the showers were done.  Even the edge of the bed will not have to be washed for awhile.
  We had ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch, a bit of quiet time, then it was off to the practice green for some chipping and putting.  Like, we were gone for two hours, where did the time go?  Even mom was practicing her golfing skills it was a great afternoon
  I got away for coffee with Donald for a bit, to the Lark restaurant, and no I still do not know how they came up with this name.  We did manage to catch up on some of the coming and goings back at home. I shall be returning back to the city after the long weekend for a couple of days, as I have a couple of Doctor's appointments to deal with!
  After coffee with Donald I returned to "grill" us some hot dogs.  This followed up by some vanilla ice cream drumsticks for dessert.  Last night I had the pleasure of Mikkel and Boots in bed!  Both sleeping sideways, one kicking me in the ribs and one pushing my feet out of bed.  Boots being the latter.  Oh such are the pleasures of Building the Simple life.........................................
