In the summer time…

By Kent

Yes, it’s here! Summer has arrived, the heat is turned on to “frying” (too warm for me, I like 20’s not 30’s & 40’s), and everyone is in relax and go play mode.
So… what’s up with us this summer? Well, there’s still a bit of yardwork to be finished, but we (finally!) have sod. It only took a month longer than it should have, (Kootenay time is like normal time only 3X slower) but it’s in and looks great. We’re watering it like crazy and will probably fertilize in a few days to help it along. In another week the kids can play on it. YEAH!!! Ang has been riding once a week and the boys and I have managed one ride so far, I’m hoping for once a week with them as well. Aisha wants to come along so I need to pick up my bro & sis-in-law’s chariot carrier so she can “bike” too. I’ve managed to get two good rides in so far, and once I’m healed up a bit from my last ride and crash, I’ll get out and ride the good stuff (read: big and scary) with my riding buddies.
The boys just started swimming lessons again, we’ve got a bit of camping & hiking planned, and we’re going to do a week in S’toon later too. And I’m sure we’ll do a bunch of impromptu hikes and caches (geocaching). All in all it promises to be lots of fun, bring it on!
