Sadly, no. I'm bummed. We come back the night of the 2nd. I would have loved to introduce you to the delights of clotted cream.

The problem with dog shows is I take the RV and once I'm parked, I'm parked for the weekend. I never travel with a tow vehicle. So, while the weather will be lovely, I'll be camped out on a middle school football field albeit surrounded by wooded hills within two miles of the Pacific coast.

Quick Question: Will you be in Minnesota August 1 and 2? Or will you be in Boston? I ask only because I was thinking we might get to visit over a scone with clotted cream (something I have yet to experience). I will be driving through your area on the 1st.

Yes, DD lives in New Jersey. The problem with the house she inherited is that essentially no maintenance was done for 20 years, so it really is a tear down. But the land is worth so much that the taxes are high. Though DD might choose to purchase something else ultimately (perhaps even on Cape Cod), it would be too expensive to bring this piece of property up to snuff and maintain it.

Closet shopping is the best! Enjoy Carmel-by-Sea. I'm sure it is beautiful there.

Liz, you sure do get a lot of visitors! Hope the house sells fast but the closing is after the wedding!

Peps, congrats on 40 lbs. down! That's awesome! I can't wait to start shopping from my closet again. I tried on a dress that was too tight to get away with and now fits perfectly. I don't think I've ever worn it so will plan to do so this weekend!

Couples Bible study last night and woman's bible study this morning. This afternoon I meet with my Stephen's ministry person as a lay minister. Hoping I can continue to do that with a church in FL.

Weather is perfect today so I plan on grilling salmon and veggies for dinner. Tomorrow we will go out to eat somewhere! Date night! ?

DC #1 is back at work doing another job and so far is fairing well. They interviewed for a different manager position but have not heard yet if they got it. They are actually wanting a different position and hope they can interview for that one soon. I'm just glad they are working and seem relatively happy.

Time to edit a few pictures before my next meeting!

On my gosh, what a beautiful day. I could just sit outside taking in deep breaths of the intoxicating loamy green scent wafting through the yard for hours. No rain for the next few days, and a heat wave is coming. We will probably turn on the AC for the first time this season.

Last night I was craving the best hamburger in our metro area, so off to St. Paul. They use brisket, chuck and new York strip, ground in house. Pricey, but oh so good. I ate half in the restaurant, and just had a quarter of the burger here at home for brunch.

Today running some shopping errands. Afterwards, I hope to work more on my deck pillow sewing.

Liz, I'd say your DD made a good decision about bringing in the pros for getting things out of her inherited house. Does she not live in the area? I would think a property on the Cape would be precious, no matter the condition. But maybe it is a moneypit.

Off to run errands!
