Thank-you ~

A big thank you to all my friends who donated wine to my "Basket of Wine" for the Summer Soiree Fundraiser. I hear it was popular and that it went to a great group of people. (hint, hint).

Found: Bench in Memory of Teddy Suiker

Good news. Some kind dwarfs took the bench from the ferry to repair it. All is back and we can enjoy the view or a nice chat on it. Thank you.

Wanted: a small dome tent to borrow...

Our 2-person dome tent is on holiday with rellies in the Rockies and we’ve just been informed that houseguests are coming – a particular 5 year old who NEEDS a tent to sleep and play in that can be set up in our sunroom.  Has anyone got one we can borrow for the weekend? 

This Nana would be most grateful.
