Weekend camping




We spent last weekend camping on the shores of Lake Michigan with Aaron, Amy, Ruby and Leo.  It was a fun time with good food, good drink and perfect weather.
We continue on the path of bedroom work, wood shop projects and WAITING.  The waiting is for that new Lee baby to arrive.  The due date was July 11 but so far that little girl is a no show.  I think Mary said Liam arrived 9 days late so maybe this weekend.  I do try to carry my phone 24/7.
We have a bit of camper trouble.  It appears like the charger for the camper battery is dead.  Travis will travel to Necedah WI Monday to have them look at it.
We have been toasting in the weather this week.  The last few days have hit 95+ but they say today is the last of the heat blast.  Tomorrow maybe 85.  I have had to curtail my work in the shop as the last few days the temp has hit 98 or so in the shop and with that sweat drips on the machines and wood--not good. 
Brother Dave should be on his way home today.  He was released from Mayo yesterday and they spent one last day in Rochester.  The report is that he is tired and weak but doing very very well.  In 8 days fome lying in a bed with your chest cut open to traveling 430 miles--modern medicine can do many things.  We hope and expect his life to improve greatly in the days ahead.  I am hoping that all who know him will totally refrain from any pig jokes!!
Time to get to work.

  1. Looks like you had a really fun time with AA and family. Glad to know that Dave is home. I'm sure he'll be getting plenty of rest and I will be thinking up pig jokes, he's already making them! I worked with the kids golf today in the golf/tennis/camping week for kids at the golf course. Interesting day! Fighting heat here as well but I'll take it over snow any day.
    Golf early morning and not so bad. Cold front coming in this weekend. Probably go all the way down to 85! Need rain to get rid of the burn ban. Keep on truckin' you'll get everything done eventually!
    Later, Helen
