My Blister has a First Name...

Its K-I-R-K... wait, that doesn't follow the tune at all.

So, Bones and I spent another four fun-filled days landscaping, and its really coming along. My brother and his fiance couldn't make it, so I named my blisters after them.

The woodchip pile is but a memory; we scraped that sucker clean and had JUST enough to do everything we needed to. There are still spots that will need new pea-stone (is that hyphenated? Pretend it is) but that hadn't arrived yet, so we'll be going back for that later.

Less than one MONTH until the wedding. I'm not quite going mad, but I probably should be. Particularly with all the stuff we need to do still. Rings, are they important? We should probably get those. Happily, the honeymoon is pretty much set and I couldn't be happier unless it came with a free pony and a lifetime
supply of bacon. We found a great little cottage to rent on Silver Lake that looks nice and quiet. Close to Parry Sound too, in case we get sick of BBQ and whatever-I-catch-fish.


"The structure" really LOOKS like a structure now, although it needs a whole new load of deadfall and more vines. Man, its going to look amazing when its done. I can't wait!

I did try to document our work this time, and somehow ended up with about four dozen pictures. I'm no kind of photographer, which is too bad since I think someone with the talent could much better express how beautiful Mum's property is. I'm throwing in a few shots that didn't look horrible (there are a remarkable number of blurry, out of focus pictures of indeterminable green matter that didn't make the cut). If I were savvier with the blogger interface I'm sure this would look nicer; danged if I know what I'm doing yet though.


The plants there are all about two weeks ahead of everything here, but mum did some cutting back (savage cutting back I might add) so many of them should be blooming again in a month.

Tomorrow's the pseudo-bridal shower which should be fun too (tomorrow, wait its after midnight - make that today). We're going en mass for a two hour trail ride that ends with a bbq, and as far as I'm concerned those are two of the best things going. Pictures will be involved, if only because I've decided I want to better document my life from hereon out. My memory needs all the help it can get!
