-How much we enjoy what we have is much more important than how much we have. Life is full of people who have more than they know what to do with, but cannot be content. It is the capacity to enjoy life that brings contentment.

Bill's summer project

Bill's project for the summer was to build a new fire pit. Last year we put a new deck on the back of the garage. This year Bill said that it was a necessity to move the fire pit it was to close to the deck. Bill likes to build fires that they can see from outer space. I was against moving the pit because I had put some hard work into making it about 5 years ago. But oh well I lost and We now have a new firepit and I must say that it is very nice. If you look close you will see the Patio garden he built for me. I like to garden but didnt want a big garden. The garden also serves as a rail when people get to the deck landing so they dont fall off.

Bill and his friend Dan have had people ask them to build decks for them next summer. Who knows maybe there is a new business adventure for them.

There is a little bit to finish but we are very close.

Decks looking good. Can't wait to see it in person at the Crappy Turkey Fry!
Love all the pics of the kitty's too! They are very pretty!
Yes, a bike ride is needed. Since I don't have Alexa Wed the 30th, I think I'm going to do the Irwin's ride. Hopefully I'll be able to keep up with everyone!
