We are showing our age. We didn't do much, just a nice quiet day.
Jacob and Jenn were successful in selling their house and found this one to buy in NW Hillsboro.
William in his bumblebee shorties flitting around the patio and exploring the new garden boxes. (lettuce growing in one!)
Chris moved the rocks one more time. He organized them on the patio so we could decide where to use them in the landscaping. We started the project not knowing what all we were going to do, so he first collected all the rocks under this window, then moved them so we could put bricks there, then moved them again as we expanded. He was a very good sport about our lack of planning.
Grass is mowed short and ready for rearranging the dirt and filling in low spots and edges. The pile of dirt will be spread some and used to fill garden boxes.
Gil built the first grow box, then Chris built the next 2 and positioned them around the dirt.
2 of the 3 boxes in position and lots of dirt spread covering up the grass.
Gil and I found another place to go walking. It's just off of highway 99W East of Sherwood. During the winter months, a lot of it is under water. Many migratory birds use this as a resting area. Some very dedicated preservationists have worked hard to connect all the plots of land to create this and a very nice visitors center.
Second Cousins - The kids really liked playing video games together. Karissa is standing in the back. Jerome, Nolan and Alexis are in front.
