Our Corner of
Rose Hill Things have officially
started. On July 21 a honey bucket
showed up and we knew this is the official start. The next day a couple of
machines showed up and started munching the smaller trees and bushes, since
then the “lumber jacks arrived” and the big trees started going down. One week of work and about half the new
development is cleared. The barn went
down today and so did the house attached to the barn. Today I counted 8 large pieces of heavy
equipment and all of them are busy and doing different jobs.

In My Travels – Last weekend my cousin’s son
got married. Bill and I got to go to the
wedding and spend time with family.
Robert, the groom, visited us nine years ago. He was a young man who had never been out of
the city of LA. We took him to see all
the normal tourist sites in the Northwest but the thing we enjoyed most was how
much he enjoyed chopping wood. Bill was
chopping some up so we could have a little bonfire while they were here. Robert was great at chopping wood and he
chopped a big pile for us that lasted a good long while. Robert and Jen have been together 6 years
now and have the most precious 2 year old daughter Zoey and Laylah is Jen’s 10
year old daughter. The girls are both so
much fun to be with and watch. They definitely
made the whole weekend more fun. We
also got to spend time with my cousin Mark and his wife Jackie, their daughters
Sophie and Gina and my Aunt Jeanne, my
daddy’s little sister and we even got to see my cousin Jan at the wedding.

My Latest
Knitting, I did make a cute poncho while I was travelling. I cast on at the airport waiting for my
flight and I cast off the day after we got home from the wedding. I have 2 dresses this little poncho will go
with. The pattern was from the Tea
Cozy Yarn Shop this year as their pattern for the Fiber Love yarn crawl.
On a Happy Note: Bill and I celebrated being married 35 years
this week. He is my best friend and
favorite playmate. He makes me laugh and
looks out for me. He helps me to be
strong and I am so much stronger with him.
We cherish each other above all others and we have similar core
values. We are content; we have traveled and explored lots of places together, we love working on projects and
we both have a long list of projects to do. We like to hike, kayak, camp, listen
to music, and spend time with friends and family. We got married in the side yard of this house
and we are still here 35 years later and are hoping to be here a lot longer.
