Summer days in Belfast with the little guys
It was a beautiful morning for a walk to Steamboat Landing and the little guys walked from the footbridge to the boathouse. Lucy and Moxie enjoyed a cooling frolic in the bay.
Back home fun in the water continued ..
Belfast Summer Evenings – June
Another of those perfect summer evenings spent doing things we love in our home town, and where everyone and everything is bathed in the magical golden light of summer.
Starting out with ” lobstah” at Young’s – a traditional Maine lobster pound….
Followed by the weekly Summer Nights music at Steamboat Landing….
An evening stroll on the Harbor Walk and footbridge….
… back home…
A flying visit to Toronto
Only spent Wednesday evening until early Saturday morning, but we packed in quite a bit. The botanical gardens, IKEA (naturally!), a walk on the boardwalk at the Beaches, Queen Street, and Roncesvalles. It was all great!

Memorial Day weekend 2016
Kat, Ian, Moxie and the fabulous foursome were here for the weekend:)
Progress …
We’ve made great progress in the last 10 days. Kat and I stained the kitchen cabinets and painted the kitchen, while Ian and Dennis finished installing tongue and groove, sheetrock, and built a wall for the shower. Since then I’ve painted the eating area and back middle section, Dennis finished off the loft area and burned all the rubbish! We’re on a roll!
Playing in dirt …
My sister tagged me on Facebook with this very appropriate quote ….
Spring checklist:
Manure and compost spread √
Gardens edged √
Weeded and new perennials planted√
Patio pots planted √
Patio furniture out√
Veg garden laid out and straw paths in place√
Onions, potatoes, brussel sprouts, kale, cabbage, swiss chard, egg plant, peppers, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, peas, beets, lettuce planted or seeded√
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just sit back and watch it grow (without weeds!) for the summer!!!!
