Harvest Success


What a haul!




I was a successful gardener this summer. Dennis dug out the clay dirt around the flagpoles and put in rich soil. My seeds grew into a garden to be proud of. I know now that I shouldn’t plant six zucchini seeds. I also should properly read seed packages while wearing glasses to avoid surprises like round zucchinis (which Oma researched for me to figure out what on earth they were)and snij bonen (scarlet runners) instead of green beans. The Swiss chard and beets, the leek and lettuce, all were fantastic. 
Luke worked on the zucchinis and Elise had a great time doing the beets. 
The flies were rather annoying, so Elise solved the problem for us. 😂

Deciding that Truth and Reconciliation were really not our issue, we went to PG to enjoy a long weekend with Jared’s family. Even Caleb came along! The men went to work tackling the winter wood supple while we ladies ran the home front. I did get to try the log splitter, but Luke, with his broken arm, was very busy with that job when he wasn’t driving the tractor. By the end of the day, the logs were beautifully stacked. Caleb had this responsibility and did a great job.

Campground map- very helpful  Dad and I snuck off for one walk together in the week. It was fun! And beautiful.  Family photo❤️ The whole group! It was wonderful to camp together.  Val doing paddleboard headstands. Impressive! The kayaks were well used.  The Nature House always had interesting things for Elise, plus some neat programs. Most of us went to one on bears.  Joshua is so loved! Uncle Luke absolutely loves being an uncle.
