And the Lake is Rising


My Mayday tree is in full bloom and looks absolutely beautiful this year... the best yet!
Thanks Correna and Joe!

As you can see, Emil brought his Annie boat back home...plenty of water to moor it in, at our dock right now. Today Emil needed hip waders to go out onto the dock...in a week he'll be swimming for it!

So last week, Silky and I were walking where all this water is.

Not a bad looking boat eh? And the dock looks pretty good too! Emil redid the whole deck of the dock. It is in two tones right now, until the new boards weather a bit, then Emil can stain them brown like the old boards at the front of the dock... All in due time!
everthing in the yard and outdoors is shaping up so nicely since E. retired... he has been working full time on maintenance long over-do. Today he finished up powerwashing the outside of the house... My balcony looks sooooo clean! The spiders will all be looking for new digs!
Okay, it is official, a multi family Street yard sale on May 31st...at least three families and also our neighbour, Lynn at the beginning of Erindale will have her little garden shop open. She has some fabulous deer resistant shrubs and trees...so I bought a couple today...also lots of clamatis, and shrubs like Wageilia...a very nice selection at reasonable rates. Mark it on your calendar and come by for garden stuff and all sorts of treasures and Elli and Pete will have heavy duty truck accessories and mechanical parts in adddition to normal items... see you in a week or two!
