The dresser is one step closer to a finished product --- I really think it will be "finished" this way for some time and I am OK with that ..... I love it the way it is. ( We hope to put corner posts on it yet.) And now we have a mirror. Unique is all I can say about it.
The whole thing was made out of "junk" wood.... Anyway it sure wouldn't have made it to any store for selling. My new jewelry box sits on top - also out of red cedar. Goodness --- Gary was tickled with his new sawmill --- but I am even more so!!!!
Yesterday, Gary went pike spearing with Deon and Ty. They came home with a pail full of pike -- all speared. This one weighed in at 10 lbs. They were all about the same length but the remaining 5 weighed around 6 lbs. each. We will be eating good for a while. We gave half of them to Deon's family.....so they can enjoy some good eating too. Deon showed Gary how to get all the bones out :) :) so we have nice boneless fillets.
I got my winter project done just in time --- today we are out in just a flannel shirt. It is beautiful out. This painting (paint by number) reminds me of the Boundary Waters in Minnesota. We have enjoyed that country several times... and they are all good memories. I think this might be my last paint by number for a while. Gonna try something new...... I am hoping our grandkids think my "paintings" are worth having some day.
Well, Gary just went out on the deck with a pop -- so I am going to join him. We have JDC tonight at 6:00. We have about 9 kids right now. They were a little restless Sunday evening --- so we might have to sit in a strategic spot tonight. We will miss Pastor Mark tonight. He is celebrating his wife's birthday with her --- taking her out to eat.
God Bless! Gary and Barb
