WE gathered, we ate, we made the Christmas draw, we yakked and some of us got to watch a bit of football. What else could be better for a Thanksgiving Day.

Yes indeed it came last weekend. It might in fact have been Summer. Man it was great. The picture above was taken by Cheryl on her iPad mini and some "Stitch" program. It shows the corner of the lot in the far right and goes around to the Stump on the bottom left corner which is actually right behind her. You can see Jude and Rob back behind me. We had cut the grass and were getting ready for a camp fire I believe. Pictures below taken the same weekend. At the West-Deck (our name for a bar on the west side of the Point) and Lighthouse Park. So you can see we had a lot of fun and Spring is when we get started. A bonus is below. We watched this eagle fishin' and his competition with a heron go on for about ....well long enough I finally got some of it on film. It was a great Spring weekend with summer weather. FINALLY we got one. We have talked far to long about doing this and with the help of the Younger generation. Rob/Chris, Grandsons Josh and even Mason doing the heavy digging it happened. We had to level and add crush to make a pad & dig and fill in a trench for the electric hookup.. Well done everybody. So we have had it going since Friday Morning. A whole 3 days now. I am kicking myself that we didn't do it before. It makes my early starts to the day way more pleasant. Me and the birds this am. Crows, a lost robin and an huge eagle. The crows and the eagle flew so close (not at the same time) I could hear their wings flapping.
As you can see from the last picture we will get sun later in the spring. It's still too early for total backyard sun. The houses block it out for now. There was a bit of ice on the steps into the tub when I went out this morning but once in...who cares. In the area drop by to try it. It's not a really big tub but we can fit you in in shifts. lol It's that long weekend before everything settles back into the norm..school for Denise and Mason..day care for Jane and University happening soon for Jude. So we try to get in the weekend at Point Bob. Here's a taste of the weekend so far... Only Kt is missing...needed some me time or maybe she has to work. Big cousin Josh has the wee ones in tow. While certain older member of the family made a vist to the West Deck for some sunshine. Fun fun. more later.... we actually did some work around the cabin too...no really
