Goodbye Brown

Slowly transitioning and painting all the exterior nasty poop-brown trim and doors to a nicer charcoal gray. The door still is pretty ugly but at least slightly better!

Nest

Highlight of the weekend: We discovered a bird's nest in the canopy of the pontoon boat.

Oddly, we noticed two birds lingering around the end of the dock. Then when we returned from a boat ride, we realized why they were flying around panicked when we noticed a nest in the nook of the canopy. Not exactly the best spot for a nest-- we are sure the mama bird was pissed at the daddy bird for picking such a bad spot that allowed their baby eggs to be kidnapped!  Sam thinks he saw five eggs in there, so we're letting nature be and waiting to see what happens between now and when we go back up in two weeks! (Grandma and Pop-Pop-- monitor the situation for us!!)

Brothers

I swear they are brothers despite not looking very much alike.

Boaters

Pretty swan on the lake!

Q was a wild driver for his first boat drive and enjoyed every moment of it.

Back to Little Long Lake!

Excited to get back to Little Long Lake and be able to spend more time up there this summer (having a baby last summer limited our lake weekends). Kids were great travelers and did a good job sleeping too.  Off to a good summer start!
