We're having such a nice weekend!

Friday the fantastic [livejournal.com profile] flt (and her van) and I went to the dump to get rid of the hot tub-related junk the bulk trash people didn't take on Thursday. It's the first time the yard's been totally clear in a couple weeks. Then we had yummy thai food :)

Friday night was dinner with [profile] durdge, Jem, and B. who is staying with them for a while. B. is a good cook and we are looking forward to spending more time with him.

Saturday was [personal profile] lightgetsin's party. Congratulations to her! It was great to see a whole bunch of people I don't see often enough!

We also finished the deck. D. put the spindles on and the railing is back up!

Today we had a BBQ. It started off a little damp (we really need a box to store the cushions in), but it cleared up enough to grill some meat (and some non-meat) and play some cards. It was great chatting with everyone.

I did some house and yard stuff this afternoon. Our next big project is finishing removing the big stumps. Our huge, ancient cherry tree has fruit. I guess it really is a cherry. There is was some talk of pie, but how to harvest fruit when it's so tall? (Maybe 40+ feet high? I'm bad with estimating).
