A better weekend

We got up early Saturday and Sunday so we could make a trip out to U-Pull-It...the local salvage yard. Was beautiful weather all weekend...mornings in the mid 60's with the afternoons feeling like summer as both days highs were in the upper 80's...will summer never end this year?

Lucked out and got the parts we were searching for...hubby had been scoping out a new bench seat for the back of the van....found a nice one that will make out to a queen size bed....if we had been thirty minutes later, it would have been gone. As it was, some guy came up to the van we were pulling it out of and blatantly stated it was his seat....I don't think so...especially not since we already had it 3/4 of the way out! Got to get there early if you expect to get the parts you want. As it was, the lights I had scoped out Saturday in a different van had already been snatched...no biggy, I'll find more another time. We loaded the seat into the van and came on to the house....not a bad deal on the seat, with the frame and motor...less than 60 bucks.

We spent the rest of the afternoon napping as the temperature rose to 88 degrees and the humidity came with it. By 4 pm, we were ready to tackle the van... We had to take the middle seats out so the bench bed could be opened.

After the van, we finished up the nest box for Penny and Patty...Ms Piggy and Red are still being bullies and trying to beat up the younger two. So I've got them in the garden for now with the new nest box and Penny and Patty seem to like it. The way these two are laying, it will be put to good use!

Things between the two of us are back to how it was in the early years...sharing our opinions, talking, enjoying spending time with each other...
