Hello all!
Summer is moving onward. We still walk everyday, though we are not seeing the nearly as many birds, heron, Sandhill cranes, turkeys, as we were at the pond, creek, and conservancy. My favorite is still the shady creek path which meanders between several bridges over tiny rapids. I also like the Tenney Park walk not far from us which features a riverside path, then a lagoon with a small island, then a lakeside neighborhood with large mostly older houses, and back to the lake side of the park with a breakwater you can walk out on, and see the Capitol, campus and Picnic Point at a distance.My nephew has bought a small school bus type bus and is converting it into a camper/RV type vehicle. He asked if he could do it in our driveway since he is not living where he can do it, so we said yes. Our driveway adjoins the younger neighbors but they don't mind. so far, though it is taking longer than he said-he is also working a job---but we figured that. He is being very meticulous about not having a mess, and is doing a better job on the thing than we thought he could.
I didn't watch much Olympics but the gymnastics are Amazing! Politics, my Dh is more enmeshed than I am,(look at a few stations and the computer) I tell him we know how we want to vote, and don't need to watch daily ups and downs and obnoxiousness , but of course, we get drawn in some, especially him.
