Project Day with Ed

Sitting on the Dock on Bemus Bay

Dinner's Almost Ready
We had a great salmon dinner last night, a la Jill, meaning covering it with mayo, salt and pepper, and lemon, wrapping it in tin foil, cooking it for five minutes on each side, on the grill.  We also had my bread, still good after a couple of days, and my favorite salmon side, garlic spinach.  After dinner, we played a little dominoes, but we found we did not have enough tiles, so we played Telefunky till 10:30.  Ed and I were ahead till the last two games and ended up losing by 200 points, as the girls killed us.

Because Ed has been antsy, I decided to find a couple of projects, easy ones, for us to do together.  Yesterday, we did change a light switch but today, we are going to fix the garage door, which has he bottom chewed off by animals and does not close tight and we will put some shelves in the pantry for Evie to store more cans and make our life a bit easier.  He is of course excited about this, has thought it through numerous times and has all kinds of ideas as how to do it efficiently and easily and make it last for the next 100 years.  He just hopes he has enough time to get it down with out tiring out and asked about going to Home Depot already.  What a guy.

We had vicious  thunderstorms last night, or so Evie told time, an inch of rain which helps my lawn, so I did not mind.  Today's cloudy, with heavy dark clouds across the lake but it looks like it will be a good day, sunny once all of this blows out.  It was 63 degrees as we woke and I am warm for some reason, as it much be humid, same yesterday evening though Ed and Dot seemed cold, no doubt because they are Arizonaites.
