My new shirt

The new Gazebo

Got this a couple of weeks ago on clearance and finally got it up
today. Should make the back porch a lot nicer.

Camping

Couldn't find a tent today so we are camping indoors tonight.

Kayaking with Emily

Em wanted to try out the new kayak tonight.

My Woot bag of crap came!

I got my woot off lights, 3 good DVD movies, USB missiles with no
launcher, woot wine bag that holds 3 bottles and a 8gb thumb drive for
$8.

I love woot!

Emily's first morning glory

She planted these from seeds!

My new (used) tandem kayak

Found a guy on craigslist that wanted to trade his tandem kayak for a
single sit in. I had been looking for one to take Beck and Emily out
on and this one is perfect. It sits 2 adults and 1 child in the center
comfortably with lots of room for a cooler and other gear if we need
it. It was an even up trade but I got the better end of the deal as
these are pretty expensive.

Look closely

This is not a shoebox that you want to reach in.

Emily jumping in the creek

I was wearing my shirt and my socks with water shoes and it was still
chilly.

Wilson's Creek

We went and swam and played in a COLD mountain stream today. We went
with our friends the Sherrills and everyone had a great time. It is a
very cool place to swim with shallow rapids and holes over your head
to swim in.

Went to the movies

Scott's Crawfish

We were fishing and Scott was catching these guys

Garden Tip #274

Don't plant your cucumbers and cantalope too close together or you'll
get cucalope.
