Connected!

 We were more than 24 hours without internet or ph service-when we tried to connect, a message comes on the screen to contact your service provider! 

 Sure, do you read smoke signals?!

There is construction going on a few miles from here where they are making a new bridge-

we figured someone had to move the wires. 

 Inconvenient but not the end of the world, right?!

I tried to make a hat without the gathers at the top;  

I did it but it was not an enjoyable experience!

 It looks cute enough but I still put a pom pom on top 

and so it didn't make enough difference to 

go through the extra work!

 I made two new grey hats...pom poms to follow!

 I've also been sewing the quilt blocks together for the Starry Splendor quilt!

 And I started spinning my way through the colorful Merino batts.

 Bill and Ethan did a bit of mowing yesterday;

Ethan didn't want to stop! 

 Like most little boys, grandpa's machinery is a lot more interesting than the sandbox!

Bill has another surgery on his foot today;  I think this is the 8 or 9th.

He worked to finish up quite a few projects since he will be down for a bit.  

This is my long awaited flower bed outside the pool area!

He has seeded the bank outside the flower bed with grass seed 

and with the rain we are still getting, it should be filled in very soon!

I can't wait to fill this in!
