Rain, Rain and more rain. Wind, wind and more wind. When will it stop!! It has been extremely wet on our island. If only it could be harnessed better for the summer months when it is so dry. Maybe we will have to dig a dugout. That would take quite awhile, being done by hand. Anyone know of a small used backhoe.
We have been busy getting wood for the fireplace. Still haven't got the insert yet. George is back in Alberta right now. He had a check up today and everything is A-okay. He will be going to Peace River to visit family and then to Red Earth, where our True Value hardware store is. Mother Mary is now in Egypt and quite enjoying herself. She went with Val our sister-in-law. I am curious to see how Egypt has changed in the last 33 years since we lived there. I imagine some has changed but Cairo was such a huge city then so must be gigantic now.
Silly primroses are blooming and the peonies, tulips and daffodils are breaking ground. They don't know what time of year it is. January is too, too early for these delicate things. Snow drops are emerging as well, but I expect them to. The winter has been so mild. I fear that we may get a cold snap in February. We usually do.
I set up a Twitter account so follow us on Twitter: portharveymarin is the user name.
