Visiting Diana

Grandma came to visit me and see my new house (while I still live there).  Then Mom came to town as well.  We all piled in the car to go to Hood River and visit Diana.

 After a wonderful lunch, we went for a short hike.  The wild flower were spectacular.

Tree Removal

I had a dead cottonwood tree in my back yard that was a bit of a problem.  I finally hired someone to remove it for me and it was tons of fun to watch

 The way he swung that chainsaw around and threw the huge branches was like a dance

 Here he's cutting off the top

 Can you tell how hard its raining?  He picked the worst time to do this.

My house in spring

Spring was very pretty at my house.  These are some pictures from early spring.

All the daffodils were rescued from erica house, but then forgotten for most of the summer in a pile.  They still were gorgeous

Our gate.  We will eventually put the latch on it so it closes.  A year long project.  ha.
