Gary gets a military discount at Lowe's and Home Depot so he save me bunches of money. Cleaned the air filters (twice). Put in all LED lights. He would make suggestions of plants and then let me choose. It was a DELIGHT! I wish the three of us could spend some time together there ... I love cooking, he's handy as a pocket and she is a dream photographer.The Awkward Widowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729456066739275695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764389163852345785.post-50220744078623376522015-10-20T18:42:39.871-07:002015-10-20T18:42:39.871-07:00I once stayed at step-mother's cottage in the ...I once stayed at step-mother's cottage in the north. She had something about wanting to plant Daffodils at the base of the Birch trees and on the east side of the cottage. I was there in October and did some plantings, where she had said she wanted them. She was not happy when spring arrived and up popped the flowers. It's nice that your friends feel comfortable enough to fix up and divide plants and that sort of thing.<br />Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399435237919718544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764389163852345785.post-76064758265545372132015-10-20T16:28:03.736-07:002015-10-20T16:28:03.736-07:00They are very very good friends!

I suppose it's common for people who live on the Islands to have extended company like that. My folks had a cottage and after a few bad experience with people they thought they knew, they never loaned or rented it out again.Misadventures of Widowhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17262709452281226620noreply@blogger.com
