What we did on our summer vacation

It's been an action-packed summer, hence why not a whole lot of activity on here. Sorry about that, folks! Yours truly will be sure to check in with you more often. So!  With a lot of traveling under out belt and many home projects out of the way, let me tell you what we did.

The summer started off with our vacation to Bodega Bay during the Memorial Day holiday where we had the best fresh crab ever. Then, we took our travels to Crescent City during the 4th of July and were accosted by grumpy old men, but were treated to the best damn firework show ever. Ferris was a little mad at us, but he got over it.

We also reaped a bounty of a reward from our garden we started back in February. It's starting to wind down now. I ripped out the melons, squashes and zucchini as they stopped producing a while ago and were now only attracting pill bugs, ants and aphids. We have carrots and salad greens still booming. I cut back the tomatoes and will be turning the remainder of them into sauce.

We were able to fix the entry way from the water damage that occured a few years ago. Something else Ferris was mad at, but now he is a happy camper. We also painted the kitchen, something we've wanted to do for a while now. Vin is also working on our sidegate. Can't wait to show you the masterpiece that displays his welding prowess.

As the season starts to wind down and we prepare for autumn, we can honestly say it was a fun and rewarding summer.

Hope all of you enjoyed yours as well.
