Happy 4th from flower cracker central.  So far it’s been fairly quiet except for some loud explosions last night, but there’s still time.  I feel for all the PTSD-ers and pets out there.  I’ll stick with flowers.  And zucchinis, which are booming.

E finished the “undeck”, for the most part, and it’s looking good.  She still has to pressure-wash the vinyl siding, and have gutters installed, etc., but we’re making progress.
