The area around the pond has had a face lift. Rita has gotten rid of the weeds and cut back the shrubs and bushes. Now the Japanese maple tree stands out just as Ken wanted it to be. Of course, Rita spent so much time on her knees that she became stiff and sore. Ken suggested that small doses would make her feel better, but that is not her style. Rita wants the task completed. The pond and environs look lovely, thanks to Rita.
Ian has been cutting back the roses. One set of stairs from the deck was occluded by the over grown rose bushes. But no longer. Ian has fixed them. And Ian replaced the burned out bulbs in the garage so now every bulb lights up. He rescued the gull from the foliage in front of Fisherman Joe so he and Ken could mount it on the stump by the front gate. It will no longer stay in the hand of Fisherman Joe so Ken has put the gull in a new spot. Once upon a time an eagle was in that place on the tall stump but a big storm blew it off and demolished the wings. Now the gull sits there, pretending to be regal and eagle like. Ian is a big help to Ken. And Rita just dives in and roots out the weeds and grasses. Such energy and expertise in our guests is remarkable. It is wonderful to behold!!
