Day 180

More construction… The next working day I started by putting the upper decking on. Just longer, thicker slats! “We have an unauthorized worker ont he construction site!” He seems willing to work, though… We had the old apple tree removed, and here is the destination, behind the Mountain Ash tree. Dailylife Daughter #1 helped me […]

Day 179

Continuing with the great playhouse saga, the next day I started putting on slats. (All photosNikon P7100) These slates form the three walls on the playhouse part.  That door is the fourth. And of course they all have to be screwed in, with four screws each!  Each board is numbered for its place in the […]

Day 178

We started on some major construction a couple of weeks ago.  We got one of those big wooden fort/swingset playsets to build out back for the Grandcritters! They came packed in three very heavy boxes. (All photos Nikon P7100) The surprise was the nuts and bolts…after three single space pages of inventory, the nuts and […]

Day 175: The Many Faces of ‘Stache, Part 1

‘Stache was over for lunch today and I played him a lot of really good music (boogie-woogie!).  He really enjoyed himself and was dancing to the beat…as much as you can dance strapped in that seat… We listened to quite a selection: Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen. (Beat me Daddy, Eight to the […]

Day 174

A few decent Super Moon Rising photos from this evening… (1/6s f/8.0 ISO100 400mm -1 stop Canon 7D) (1/6s f/8.0 ISO100 400mm -1 stop Canon 7D) (1/60s f/5.6 ISO250 400mm Canon 7D) Not my best Moon photos, but earn you shoot it coming up you are shooting through an awful lot of atmosphere! ~Curtis in […]
