It was a full day of CKC business for Lee, gardening for Ken and Board Meeting fun for Chantelle. There was paper flying only surpassed by the dirt that Ken shared with those of us who weren't in digging mode. Phone calls paralleled Air Canada's - but we have only one line. That is a bit challenging.The kennel is almost empty so offered Tom endless opportunity to sort things through. We are going to be looking for equipment for the whole season, I think. Amy is in charge, Trebia enjoys her so is teaching her the chase game but did mention that Barrett is a lot better at it.
The house dogs are fine and enjoying what is a fabulous May. The plum tree is incredible in its' blooms as are the red buds. the front garden is in full bloom with a riot of tulips, violets, perennial pansies and daffodils. Our gardener is proud. The other two inhabitants are amazed at his prowess. And the little tiller continues to work its' magic. Now, the mower has had to go to the mower hospital and yesterday the announcement was that the drill has to go to the drill hospital so we appear to be working out way through motorized equipment at a high rate as this outdoor season gets fully underway. The dogs are supervising the activity, urging Ken on to greater heights as he makes noises that they remember from previous years and stands on a side of the fences that they can't reach, much to their disgust. With this number of terriers, they are certain that the new tiller is redundant.
Dawn joined us for a spaghetti dinner with the lovely dark beer bread turned into garlic bread and rice pudding to round things out. And we are off on an adventure tomorrow. . .
