We start today's recap with Henry, Atlee, and Monique on a beagle-walking expedition. Oddly, we don't see Katie the Beagle in any of these photos. So, to keep our Internet-leading Katie the Beagle quotient high, we start with a beagle haiku.
If a full beagle
Was walked, but not photographed
Did she really poop?

Henry and Atlee found a bouncy duck.

A swan nesting in the wetland.

A heron wading in the weeds.

After the walkers returned, Arsen and Brigitte came over to spend the afternoon and evening.


Sunday was no day of rest. After a few rain showers cleared through, we put everybody to work.

Greeley digging a hole for the new canoe stand. Yes, indeed, Rich was at it again making more improvements around our house, this time using child labor.

Henry inspects the situation...

We put Arsen to work, too, weeding the hostas.

Naturally, a well-oiled machine like this needs proper management. Fortunately, I was equal to the task!

Finally, here are Susan and Rich relaxing on our couch after a full day of vacationing.
We ended the day with pizza and a movie, "Flash Gordon" (1980). Tomorrow's plan? We're going to the zoo. Come back to see what ensues: same Patio-Time, same Patio-channel!

John, I am so glad that you are posting all these updates and so quickly. I was shocked to see this posting about yesterday up already this morning, before you are up...
