This was Carol's birthday weekend, so we left Saturday afternoon for Lincoln City. I'd made reservations at The Inn at Spanish Head. We couldn't check in until 4:00p.m. so we went to our favorite shop in Lincoln City - The Christmas Store. Then we played a couple of lanes of bowling - we won't talk about the scores :(   We checked in at the Inn and hit the Jacuzzi. We drove to Depot Bay for dinner at the Italian Riviera - they had a live jazz band and Paul Biandi was playing sax. It was all 30's, 40's and 50's song night. Lots of great oldies! It was a great day, and today we had breakfast at the Inn and drove home with some super memories!

SO...tonight my Dad is looking for a part and Ebay has it in Indiana for $55.00 and it looks like this...

Hope this is it, Dad. Let me know if you want it. Love ya!!!!

Yard project update - we completed the french drain project. Then, we had the boarder and sod installed...what a difference!

So, now, we need to work on the rest of the boarder and adding more Lava Rock. Next summer...maybe a water feature against the west fence :)
More news soon...gotta get stuff done before it starts raining again!

We worked all day Saturday around the house, washed the cars, and cleaned the yard...so, now, it's time to relax on the Beach !!! This is Canon Beach, OR at sunset,,,ofcourse, we took Payton along.

It was hard to leave, but, we had a full BLUE moon on the way home.
Yesterday, Carol fixed a great dinner. Millie and Mom Peters were our guests. Then NASCAR was at Atlanta! Jeff Gordon came in second...but, he should have won! Hope everyone has a great week...more to come soon.
