Spring Cleaning

  The long dock has been pressure washed and the wide dock is almost done, the walkway is finally done (except for the very top by the ramp).
Before-look how green it is!

After

  

George has finished the steps to the store as when we moved the barge the steps had to go! He is busy doing the ceiling to the addition to the kitchen.  The door is in. He has been busy making benches for beside the steps to the store.

The New Fingers

All in all it has been a busy couple of weeks, trying to work around the rain.  It snowed yesterday, go figure! The sun was out today, so much work was accomplished.  Bob and Doug came for steak and eggs, and I continued to work on the walkway.    The new pressure washer works like a charm.

The birds are all aflitter at the finch feeder.

Our First Boat

We had our first boat today. A sailboat that is on its way home to Alaska.  We have been busy getting the dock ready for the season.  I have been pressure washing the dock.  Boy did the birds and otters make a mess!  The long dock is done and I am working on the wide dock.  Next will be the deck of the Red Shoe and then the walkway.  The walkway was not done last year, and it surely needs it.  It was quite slippery this winter.  George has been busy getting the addition of the Red Shoe finished.  We have purchased a propane deep fryer which will really help with meals.  New steps are being put up for the store and we are working on getting a generator.  Gift items have been ordered and picked up so the gift store will be quite full this year.  We are still sourcing out childrens items.
Had our first hummingbird on the 1st and no it was not an April Fool's joke.  The robins are in abundance, with the juncos enjoying the feeders.  There are very few tulips but the grape hyacinths are blooming as well as the daffodils.  Flowers are very late this year with the cold weather.
I am anxious to get into the garden and get more flowers planted.
