At the Lake

Spent a few days at Emerald Lake.  A very long and hard rain born of Hurricane Gustav as it finally petered out north of Lake Superior greated us Thursday night.  We estimate somewhere between 2 and 4 inches of rain overnight.

Friday was overcast with some rain so we did some more painting.  Surprising how long it takes for Kathy to "cuts in" along edges that are seldom at right angles, are along stone walls, and abut wood paneling and window frames.  We got the primer on room and a hall; finish coat goes on next trip.

Weather Saturday was terrific.  Sunny and cool.  Today Kathy got her hair done in town by Ellen while I mowed using the tractor and hand mower and picked apples from the trees in front.  

We'll get more trips in later this month.
