HotHotHot!

And getting hotter towards the weekend I hear!

I just watered everything in sight!
The blueberries I bought this Spring are turning BLUE!



The Columbines are starting to bloom!




My basket of dahlias are going to bloom!
The list goes on.
Everything is doing pretty good, if I water the crap out of it at least every second day!

As you know, I'm going to the family rebellion next week!
I stay with an aunt I make cards for.
So I did some Christmas cards for her. She usually likes half a dozen or so!









She tries to pay me, but I argue that I can't stay there for nothing!

I even have some volunteer pansies that are blooming!



They were my grandma Berthas' favorite flower!
That's what she said any way, but she always had beautiful begonias!

Well, tomorrow's picnic day at the lodge.
Better go.

Ta ta for now!

Camping!

We finally made our maiden voyage for the year!
I had 5 days off, and Ray had 4!
So we went to Hilliards Bay for 3 sleeps!
The weather was awful!



This was us beetling to shore in some crappy weather!
We rocked & rolled on the boat this weekend for sure!



This was the pirate boat that went back & forth....Cathie & I figured it was casing the joint!



This made the rain & drizzle easier to take!



Ray's fishing off the dock that was installed this spring!
It's a jackfish, so went back in the lake!





Seems like miles back & forth from the lot to the dock!
I think it's 300 feet. That's of dock, you still have to walk through a marshy part!



This is the awesome firepit Wayne built!
It's like a Hogwarts fireplace with a crook in the chimney & everything!

Wayne & Elaine, and Cathie & Erin were there this weekend. Also Clint, Brett and Kimberly, and a ton of their friends!
They stayed at the campgrounds though!
I think they had 2 sites, and about 5 or 6 tents!
And a KEG! OMG!
Fun was had by all!

I've already cleaned the camper out for the next trip, but it might be at the end of the month!
My holidays start on the 15th, and I'm on my way to Redcliff for the family rebellion.
Got my silent auction goodies all finished.
I need a pot luck dish, but I think I'll make that Holiday Delight!
It's nice and easy and light!
I'll just borrow a bowel!
I'm staying at my cousins!
I don't go back to work at the OFH until August 10!!!

Better go.
I'm still waiting for them over at CCAYR to put up the July challenge!

Ta ta for now!
