Maui traveled with us recently when we went to the creek house for Thanksgiving. She travels very well and has finally become more friendly and she wants attention more than she used to. We were there a week and worked on various projects mostly related to getting new carpet on the floor. In the end they would not install it because we have tile on the floor that contains asbestos. It dates from the 1960's when no-one knew that it was a hazard. Next time down we will try to remove it but it will be a chore.
Note the damage to the trees in the photo above. These are chinese tallow trees and have been there nearly 50 years but we had a freeze a couple of winters ago and they were severely damaged. The near one will probably need to come out but the other one looks better now and may eventually survive.
While we were there we saw this flying machine go over the house. It is a powered parachute and it was quite interesting.
The weather was great the whole week but we did get a smattering of rain on Friday.
I have been working on a boat that my dad built a long time ago. I have been refitting it for sailing and also to use a trolling motor to go fishing here locally. It is getting close to finished so I wanted to post a couple of pictures.
That about does it for this post. Martha graduates from HPU tomorrow and receives her degree. She is very excited about that and so am I. I may post a picture of her in her cap and gown tomorrow.
