Washing the Bike

Andrew made it home safe and sound on Thursday. Friday night we watched the DVD "Firewall" with Harrison Ford. It was ok I guess, nothing special but it was good enough entertainment. We decided to join Netflix rather than rent DVDs at Blockbuster. So we will see how that turns out. Friday was my brother's 40th birthday - welcome to the other side Corby! This morning we worked in the yard doing some edging and mowing the grass. We were done by 1:00pm and I wanted to go on the boat to read books and swim around, but Andrew cut his hand while slicing limes for the Coronas and that put him in a bad mood. So we made burritos instead and then we watched the USA vs Italy World Cup match. It was quite a match, with Italy scoring an "own goal" and 3 red cards given out. In the end it was a 1-1 tie, so USA is still alive. After that we washed the car and the motorbike. Now we are just about to start the 3rd period of game 6 of Edmonton vs. Carolina. We are both voting for Edmonton. The pink daylilies are blooming now. It is hot and not a good time for yard work. I just need to spread out some mulch and then activity on the gardening front will die down until September. I sure hope we get some good rains. We are down over 3 feet now in the lake.
