Tuesday ; 6/4/13

Went for a little ride out to Adams Point and Back while Tricia tended the garden.

that's my new trek bike i think it's called a Viper. It was a work out out to Adams Point.

Tricia worked in the garden while i banged on the banjo.

Sunday Morning 6/2/13

Tricia wanted a picture of her Petunias this morning and out of the corner of the picture you can see this big turtle laying her eggs pretty neat. i did take a close up.

These are the plants we need to get into the garden today. 

This is the garden where they are going to go. (again notice the turtle laying eggs in the upper right corner)

Sunday Morning May 26th 2013

Here's Tricia with here Memorial Day Poppy

Tricia got a bunch of flowers for the front of the house. 

We took Tricia's old Raleigh (actually it was her Mom's) to the bike shop yesterday. 

Tricia had it at graduate school and has had it ever since.

Of course Sam had to have a new Trek "hybrid". i wasn't crazy about red but i didn't like the other option of chi-chi black. 

We went up to lake Winnipesaukee to a flag store and bought 2 new 2'x3' Annnin flags for the front and back. 

Saturday Night ; 5/18/13

Sam's new Weber grill.

I saw this very big turtle swimming up river i ran inside to get a camera and then i saw these 2 Canadian geese with 6 goslings (i counted them) and i couldn't see the turtle. All of a sudden a big commotion the the geese are yelling and squakin i think the turtle got one of the goslings they were to far off to count . i'm waiting to see them soon and hopefully there will be 6. 

Sam burgers tonight. 

Thursday Morning, 5/16/13 , coffee
