Obstacle course

 
The monsters are waiting to devour the neighborhood.

The WT's have been in short supply, lately.  There are often 2-3 of us out for morning coffee.  Summer has everyone scattered about and we have to plan ahead to get out of our neighborhood. There is major construction going on--digging up rusty pipes that are decades old and hauling in 
mountains of gravel, etc.  Sometimes, we have to check with a worker, hoping we won't be trapped in our driveway for the day.  

Since we are having a decent summer, weather-wise, we now have something else to converse about.
Our water supply is coming from water hydrants, through hoses into our outside water faucets.  Seems rather backwards.  Otherwise, the WT's are hanging in there.  Lorraine has two grandchild weddings this summer and celebrated an aunt's 100th. birthday.  Mary is very busy with seminars.  Tee makes a weekly trip to visit with her husband in a nursing home, Sharon's husband is doing well.
We had a wonderful opera during the Northern Lights Festival--"The Merry Widow".
