Diverse activities today!! First thing this morning, a trip to Builder’s Supply for eight cement paving blocks–to extend the patio. ~~ David’s first stop was Lowe’s for the lumber for steps, and another bag of planter soil (which saved me a trip to Livingston). ~~ Per my request, David built steps for a friend (in Escapees Rainbow’s End RV Park). Although I’m an active senior, I’m cautious about falling. I worry when I see steep steps and a frail senior.

Frankly, David still has several other jobs on the “to do” list but knew I’m anxious for the “storage shelter.” It was a matter of trying pieces to see what would “fit” and whether there were sufficient (for want of a better description) “joints.” Slowly, miraculously, it came together!! ~~ I never expected the salvaged pieces to provide such a large framework: Seven-foot by twelve-foot.  David laughs and says “Look at all the space to hang plants [inside] from the roof.” ~~ Honestly, it doesn’t look like much right now but (hopefully) attractive when covered with the ten by twenty-foot tarp. ~~ I’m so anxious to get some of my clutter out-of-sight!! ~~ (No, I don’t have a dog. That’s David’s “Poncho.”)
