Beautiful day or two out on the Mira

This past  weekend was a show stopper for a summer preview . Saturday was a lovely  day .The  temperatures hovered within  the 17-20  range . Hubby & I took a drive to the bungalow again .This time we brought our new tree and some soil out with us .I started cleaning  up the fallen leaves and branches around the fire pit .I was  going to put out the chairs &  chimenea ......but  the river was so calm ....I didn't get too much else accomplished .lol  .Took it all in instead ;)

ripples were from this guy .

I was hoping to get out there for the whole weekend and start getting a lot of  things done before the black flies start to take over the outside . It didn't exactly happen that way...... but we did get back out again Sunday.
            Sunday was awesome  !  I think it was 21 ,maybe even 22. We  brought the kids this time .....well two of them at least :)

we got busy digging...

everyone helped to plant the tree we brought out the day before .

Think he looks pretty good :) Really hope he thrives :) 

   Only had one  down side of the weekend . When hubby checked the pump for the well he discovered that the bladder in the pressure tank was done for . I guess we will have to find some money for a new tank . Glad we didn't know about the tank before we bought the tree , might not of bought him otherwise .

the sun was out !!!

Finally .....on April 28th , a beautiful spring day !

After what seemed like weeks of rainy days ........ Today was a great refresher .Woke up to a clear sky and sunshine . Awesome!!!  It's just plus  7 , But  I'll take it!! Went for a drive again to the bungalow with hubby .  I know.....Seems like we head there every weekend (grin) and we do ( bigger grin ) . Love the bungalow!! would live there if I could  .....One of these days ;)   These guys were out enjoying the sun and new green grass as we drove by . !! ;)



It's this little guy cute ......awe!!

                                                                                    
While we were there  we checked on the lilac bushes we planted last fall ,sat and had coffee & cookies while we gazed at the Mira ....Then we went for a stroll  .... It was just such a nice day !
    Supper when we returned home was burgers & wedges . mmm!  I feel so re-energized I'm off to sew for a bit  now
  see Ya ;)
 Oh and hubby & I weren't the only ones out for a lovely walk in the country.
This guy  took his good ole time crossing the road .     he almost didn't make it ! They are a hoot to watch !
