Getting our nest in order

During these first three weeks we have been getting stuff out of boxes, planting, scrambling to get feet on the ground for those first feeder roots to start descending. Pretty things are going up on the walls. Coziness is settling in here.

The weather has been lightly rainy for about two weeks. Today we just had scattered clouds; the daylight was brilliant! Temperature neared 80! Our transplanted tomatoes and friends are so ready to take off, once that summer heat begins. We are getting our bikes ready, too.

Only two weeks until Aaron arrives for the summer. We are really looking forward to this time together. He will meet his baby nephew, Ben. Benjamin Eder is so sweet. Such a little package of life. Heavenly family time, coming up.

I hope to post an entry once a week. Also, I hope Valori and Aaron will write. I don't feel settled enough to write in detail, but that time is coming...
