Summer Flowers and a Lake View

    About 2 weeks ago Zac, Theresa, Lilly, Zoe and Cam all came to visit.  We had a great time and the boys helped us clear the rest of the fenceline to reveal the lake.  I'm really enjoying the view.


I'm also enjoying all the flowers the previous owners have planted over the years.  The flower garden has proven to be a bit of work but it seems there is something new blooming every week. 








Project: Landscape Lighting

   The strange (different) thing about Dardenne Farms is that there are NO street lights (and no sidewalks).  One solution to the darkness, which some of our neighbors have done,  is to install landscape lighting - thus the project of the day!   Today Jim decided it was time for outdoor lights.  It was nice to have a project that only took an afternoon and reeped such rewards.
