Pat power washed the deck and deck furniture yesterday and it is astounding how much nicer everything looks. I had been told that teak becomes gray as it ages so thought it was normal. Everything looks almost new.

We've had fresh corn from the garden twice now - it is sooo good. Tomatoes are also ripening and we're getting beans, squash and peppers now; two bags of potatoes (some of which Jonathan helped me dig) and two bags of onions are in the basement for future use.

The basement finishing is progressing. The sheetrock is all up, the shower installed and almost everything is painted. Next comes the flooring.
