I think it has also helped that the Juan de Fuca Festival of Arts is over Memorial Day Weekend each year, Richard loves voluntreeing for that so we tend so stay home more in the month of May anyway. If you happen to be in town or want to listen to some good music I highly recommend going. It's fun and there are some nice vendors and great food. I hope Micheal's Divine Dining will be there again; they make these great salmon sandwiches.
We did order our new toy online and it arrived Monday. We now have an LG 42 inch LCD tv. It's amazing! I keep using the computer down there just for the sake of being able to read all the
icons. We have had a computer plugged into our tv for about 3 years and this is the first time we've been able to read anything on it. When the choice was narrowed down to two items I left Richard to make the final decision between them. Partly because the features involved were ones I wouldn't notice or didn't understand about. I'm also really impressed on how the corner we have our tv in looks completely different now. Before I felt the corner was kind of dark and closed in, now it seems open.We have been doing a lot of work in the yard, so here's a recent picture of a new garden I made. The spot was taken up by a rather large juniper bush and upon removing it we discovered it had been planted in sand. Instead of letting the grass grow up, I decided to make it into a garden. I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out. It's got a few more plants in it now, including a bush fushisa, and peony.
