Busy Couple of Weeks

We want Daniel to feel ready for classes to start on Monday. We recently got him a new bike and all the gear. He has been riding it often to get himself ready for biking to school everyday. The ride is a little over 6 miles one way. He timed it the other day and with morning traffic he gets there in about 40 minutes. He plans on lessening the time.

He looks good on his bike.

One of Daniel's projects on the house was to enclose our carport. We needed the extra storage and he figured out a great plan to allow him to ride in and out of the door with his bike so we can store it in there. He also put up several shelves for my gardening things and his tools and other outdoor gear. I was very proud of him. He planned it, built it, painted it. It looks good. One of the best in the neighborhood, I think.








Here is the beach on a sunny day. We were returning from Home Depot. (We have been in there a lot lately.) There is beach access right near the shopping center so I took a few pictures. We have had a stretch of sunny days here lately. It has been beautiful.






I just wanted to say how much we like our new grill. Daniel has learned how to use it this week since we are pretty much settled in our house now.


(This picture is taken outside in our little patio area off the front of the house. It is right off the kitchen so it makes for easy passing of food between outside and in.)

The grill has worked great so far and we have only used it a couple of times. No daring meats on it yet, just practicing with burgers, but oh they were yummy. We enjoyed some earlier in the week then had a cookout with the Reynolds last night. Good times with that family. We love them!
