Today our oldest grandson, Adam turns 23! Another of "where does the time go?"
 |
| He went with us to Mule Days in Bishop, CA for about 10 years..he was probably 4 years old here 💙 |
 |
| We were headed to the July 4th parade in Colfax..he was 3 then.. |
He left here the other day for a solo trip down highway 395 to take some pictures and do a few hikes. He texted this morning asking if he could come here as the weather was bad and it was cold. He was in the Lee Vining area. A few hours later he was here!
I was making him some lemon bars. Guess I don't have enough practice at that as I ended up putting the ingredients for the center part in with the crust. Then I realized my mistake when I pulled out the other bag LOL. Oh well just put everything together and cooked it anyway. Still seemed to taste good. We shall see once he cuts into it. 😂 Update: they are delicious! Looking forward to one with coffee!
The winds are up once again! Darn, today we were going to put the tin roof on the kitchen. Ken's been out working all day on the facia board and putting the rest of the screws and nails in the joist hangers and the other end. Looks good!
Yesterday he got the rest of the corrugated metal up in the back and then all the joists up along with the boards that will go across for the metal roofing to sit on and be nailed to.

| Blurry but shows how a 10 foot by 15 foot flag was blowing with our winds! Adam had 2 turkey burgers and then I put a couple of candles in his lemon bars. Ken and I sang (hahaha) Happy Birthday to him. It's an early night and nothing to exciting for him but he said he enjoyed it. |
Putting up tin in that wind would have been very challenging! Hopefully the winds dies down and you will be able to get it up in the next day or two!
ReplyDeleteWe are headed outside right now..as there is no wind for the next few hours or so they weather guessers say...Only 7 pieces of roofing so hoping it'll all get on there! :)
DeleteHappy Birthday Adam!!! The wind has been nasty and you probably have snow by now!! Hopefully it slows up so you can finish the outside of the kitchen. Inside work will be easy then!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Nancy. WE actually got no weather except cold and WIND! Could see the weather all around us though. Hoping to get the roof on this morning! Fingers crossed! :)
ReplyDeleteI wondered if Adam was going to be ok with the location he was headed to. Good thing you don't live too far away. Lemon bars sound delicious and I really like that garden cart. Happy belated birthday Adam. Elva
ReplyDeleteFunny that's what he said about us only being about an hour from where he ended up! They are good, I sent them home with him so I don't eat them all!! LOL. Yeah, Ken loves that cart! Thank you for the birthday wish!
DeleteSounds like you have a nice trip planed to spend time with family. Happy Birthday to your grandson, Adam.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm sure it will be nice to spend a few days. Planning on seeing Ken's mom for a bit too :) We had Happy Hour in the Mansion last night, makes me want to go on vacation!
