Home Time

After San Francisco we returned to Tacoma and were able to take 6 days off at home. A bonus was that Lisa was also home for a little R-n-R after her school teaching year. The weather was perfect- hot and sunny. We ate out on the deck each night, went to the lake for afternoon swims and even got a little work done

Here is one of our al fresco dinners- this one with our friends Barry and Valerie and with Lisa

One morning we were visited by a young male deer. He came right alongside our deck and took a little shower in the sprinkler.

Lisa was a big help. Here she is down in the basement contemplating the next step of the re-plumbing of the water lines. She ran the hot and cold water lines for the new bathroom--without any leaks (that spray on the wall doesn't count)!

Okay- a slight amendment to the weather report. It actually was too hot on Wednesday- over 100 degrees in the shade. There was a long afternoon swim in the lake and we slept on the deck outside that evening.
