spiders and ants are pretty much all over the place and most of them won't really hurt you or bite. safe journeys!

still haven't mowed, hope to get that done today. trash day, woke up an hour and a half early... *grumpsmirk*
yesterday was the odds and ends day. we had a new friend come over to help me put the replacement piece of orange stained glass up on the lighthouse (it got blown out several months ago by a storm or the wind flexed it too much and popped the glass out). i wasn't feeling confident enough that i could do it myself without risking breaking it or doing something klutzy - i needed three hands. it only took us a few minutes and it went well. put some caulk on there to hold it better this time. i was surprised that there were no hornet or bird nests in there.
and then we moved a pallet to replace a rotting one that was under the decorative pot bellied stove and he helped me move the stove off the old pallet and then back on the new pallet.
less than an hour and we fed him and talked for a while. i asked him if he'd help out on replacing the garden fence sometime this fall or next spring (it's been the wrong kind of fence since it was put in 20something years ago and now it is falling down and has some large gaps along the bottom meaning bunnies and groundhogs are having a too easy time getting in) sounds possible so we'll see how that goes.

a friend wanted some green peppers and the Beaver Dam pepper so he could dehydrate them. i picked two good boxes full plus the extra peppers i had from the other day went to him. glad to help him out as he said he was just going to place an order for a half bushel of peppers. he got about an extra bushel of peppers to work with.
i left some extra Beaver Dam peppers out there for my SIL who said she liked them, we'll see them later this week.
lawn got mowed.
