Saturday, May 23rd, 2009, we spent our first night in the cottage. It was a great way to mark our 28th wedding anniversary.
The week before, Greg was home and we recruited him to help move a truckload of furniture so we now have a table and chairs, a couch, dressers and beds. Thanks Greg for your help and for a fun day.
The timing for the move was perfect as it was a cool day and there were no bugs when we were moving in. But the mosquitoes and their relatives were out in great numbers this week. A screened in porch is really a must this time of year and it was put to good use. But I didn't let the bugs keep me from building steps to the door on the east side or repairing the seat in the 35 year old fibreglass canoe that served so reliably for several decades at my parents' cottage. Barb cleaned windows, organized the whole place and read. We both relaxed and enjoyed the view, the fresh breeze blowing through the porch, the peace and quiet, and a pretty good steak dinner on the BBQ. The first of many easy going, stress free week ends.
