Richard steadies the tank as the crane affair on the back of the truck lowers it carefully into the prepared hole.

Setting in the Septic Tank

Here is a picture of the activity of the day on May 29th, setting the Septic Tank into the ground. It won't open for a picture, will try to do it later.

Solar panel scraps

Got some solar panels from Colleen Taylor who sells Regal.

Am going to put them in most rooms, I bought the longest length, then I cut off down past the sills. And this one here is in the bathroom where we had no curtain of any kind. It is hung on electrical strong wire. Held up by 2 panel nails.

The sides I put down some wallpaper trim.

That will be good until fall, then I will have to change it and turn it around and decide what to do where the wallpaper is.

This is scraps so I had to seam it across once, it is 2 pieces but taped them together a bit as well in the middle. We can see out; but no one can see in. But we can't see out at night.

Another view of the flowers Peter brought

I talked to Peter at work on Monday and asked him more about the flowers he had brought me.

As I had not seen any packaged like this and was not sure how to care for them.

He told me that they were in a vase inside that large silver container!

So I took it out of the silver thing last night and I added a glass of water to the vase. They are packed in there very tight to I had to tip the vase in order to add water without spilling any.

Put it back in the container. Today I got thinking that maybe you are supposed to take them out and just display them in the vase--that maybe the container is just for carrying them in.

Has anyone else ever seen any like this?

The lilies are quite perfumed at night, and the whole thing very beautiful so I took more pictures.

Beautiful Arrangment

I came home from work and found the most gorgeous arrangment on the kitchen table. Of course I had to photograph it right away--Peter had been by and brought this lovely floral tribute for me. I immediately phoned him to say Thank You even though it was 1 a.m. I left a message as he was out.

Jake and I have been invited to Mark Fraser's and Kimberley's wedding. We received this lovely wedding ivitation for July 26th. We also have a 50th anniversary for Jake's brother Ed and wife, Gerda on July 12th.

The summer will be busy as there is another wedding in August, possibly two.

Beautiful Flowers

Think I will cut the stems down on these so they get closer together. I put them on the floor to photograph them.

They are nice big blooms.

I love these great colours

Bright Flowers

On Thursday Ruth and I went into the city. I wanted to get some nice new blooms for the living room. I am going to attempt to put some pictures here. This is my second attempt--I am having trouble with the site.
