Reflecting on our Summer

I've been very busy...... drove Summer School the entire month of July. Spent the first two weeks of August working in another dist. teaching Traffic Safety Education. Then we headed out for Camp Daly, thank you Tom n' Laura for having us again this year. We packed so much fun into 4 days. The deer were everywhere and of course we fed them.


So many fawns the year... they were adorable !!!


Hubby and Tom working on one of the dirt bikes.


Camp Daly is home of the motorized toys. I'm rather proud of myself, this years I learned how to shift out of first on the quads. Laura n' McKenzie rode along side, helped me figure it out. I can now buzz right along with everyone else.


They Honeymoon Shack and Trailer.


Kayaks loaded and ready to head up to the lake.


Mayfield Lake boat ramp....let the fun begin.


We paddled out of the lake and up the Tilton River.


Here I am try out Laura's newest kayak.


 There were two places that the water was so low, we got out, drag the boats thru. 


At the top of the river, Tiernan, Hubby and Tom went first. It's a tight spot !


We stop and hiked into one of the waterfalls.


 These were randomly stacked around the falls.


We were the only people around it was so peaceful.


We got home and unpacked just in time to go back for In-service. It was 3 very long days !!! I'm not ready to start a new school year yet. On a side note~ my garden did amazingly good this season.

All four varieties of Hubby's peppers did well

Our blueberries had an awesome year too.


They were very flavorful.


This is the second year for these raspberries.



Planted my lettuce in between my tomatoes this year, it worked out well.


One of our six apple trees.


Another of the trees.


My Gravenstein.....yummy !!!


I also found a bit of time in my Studio. Newest project underway~



All forty-two are sewn together.


This is the pattern I chose.


I also finished my August HST for the Birthstone Q.A.


Hoping to find the time to post more often this Fall.
