More Shelly

I know it has been forever since I last did a blog post so I thought I'd do a quick update.
Shelly is adjusting wonderfully into the family. She's really sinking her teeth into anything she can get them on. I've titled the picture below, "Good Morning - I've been patiently Waiting for you to come downstairs and feed me." Chloe and Shelly get along very well. Thank God we have a king sized bed because by the end of the night, both dogs are in bed with Gary & I and are exercising their full right to stretch out and get comfy.

Camp has closed for the season and everything is put away until next May (or April if Mother Nature co-operates).

Our house is on the market but we've only had 2 showings. Things are really slow around here.

Fall in the Air

It's a start. The summer had flown by. We didn't have much of a summer here in Maine. What we did have was a ton of rain. I think the entire month of July and most of June were rain. August has been hot and muggy but it's starting to improve. The days are a little cooler and the nights a little colder. It is also dark at 7:30pm now. Some trees are starting to have a little color in them.... especially the ones growing around swamps.

School starts next week.

The summer that wasn't

77 days after the rains started, it stopped and the sun came out. My lawn sprung into action, the moss on the roof cried in pain and mosquitoes the size of small pickups came out of the woods to feast on any human they could find. The past couple of days have proven to me that we actually might have a summer after all. There really is a sun in the sky.

Going to Greenville next week for a wedding and some family time. I promise I will try to blog more. I am on Facebook if anyone is interested. I'm there alot.
