…and still busy with the spring projects. The new wood floor in the bedroom is done; work on the adjoining bathroom is in progress. The whole house is dusty and messy with displaced furniture and may be for a while yet until we finish. Gardening season is in full swing when the days are dry. Artmaking and further studio reorganization is on hold.

We did take time out last week to have a little celebratory anniversary dinner in Deep Cove and enjoy watching the activity of many different kinds of boats. Notice the class of kayakers in the bottom photo. Later today we are meeting good friends who have moved back to Vancouver. We look forward to seeing the progress on the beautiful house that is being built for them, and it will be interesting to compare it to the house that is developing next door to us here.

Last but not least, we are eagerly looking forward to the return of our daughter and granddaughters from England next week. Life is very full.
