A Couple of Busy Days ...

June 21, 2016

We decided to have BBQ salmon for dinner today ...

the salmon was put into the FoodSaver marinating dish ...

in a combination of soya sauce ... brown sugar ... lemon pepper ... garlic powder ...

oil and water ... for a couple hours ...

then grilled on the BBQ ...

It was so flaky and delicious ...

This recipe is a keeper ... !!!

We had quite the storm this afternoon ...

and once it had passed ... the sun shone behind us and displayed this beautiful rainbow ...

Mike had a resident Robin ...

that was insistent on building its nest on top of the light fixture by the shop ...

After I took a few pictures ... these young birds had flown the coop ...

Now Mike can clean up the nest and build a cover over the light fixture ...

We also received the picture of Ella at her dance recital ...

then it wasn't a few days later that Ella had a spill ...

from riding her scooter to pick up the mail ...

Nathan ended up spending the evening at the hospital ...

while Ella received a few stitches ...

June 25 & 28, 2016

Mike was busy sprucing up the quads ... fixing a few minor issues ...

except for Ella's quad had a motor mount broken ...

so Grandpa had to weld it up and put it back together ...

as the grandchildren were planning on coming for a visit ...

On June 28 ... already summer ...

Nathan drove home from work in a snowstorm ...

the roads were covered ... wet and a mess ...

and Grandpa was swimming in to pool at the same time ...

It's strange how different the weather can be from one place to another ...
