More Fun In The Yard

My computer is still in the shop. I feel sort of lost without it. I want to get going with some work that requires it. Fortunately, Lou's is available so I can still make the occasional post.

I keep making progress on the arbor replacement. I didn't want to leave until I got the yard sprinklers working again. Everything that was, is back now, even some that wasn't. Basically just the deck to do now. I picked up some plywood to make the forms for that last night. It's going to sit a little higher in the yard so a little retaining wall is needed. I do get carried away, don't I?

We were planning on getting away for a few days to Santa Cruz and the Pinnacles on Tuesday. I have a dentist appointment Tuesday and we'll leave from there. But, it looks now like a storm may be coming so we may reschedule until it passes. Dawn wants to look around Santa Cruz. it's just over the hill, but we haven't been there in a while.

I'm a little torn between my big desire to get back on the road and a little desire to stay and finish a few more improvements. I do need to paint this house and I need to pour a little concrete walkway in San Jose at Dawn's place. I'm still not sure what will win.
