Cleaning Day

Breakfast at Denny's with son Jeremy, granddaughter Allie, and grandson Luke bolstered us all for the tasks we wanted to accomplish today.   After fueling,  we went to the house to get busy.  Allie went to town clothes shopping with her mom (Jennifer).  


We purged our utility trailer, aka storage unit



into piles--take home, give to Jeremy, trash, give to Goodwill or Salvation Army, put back into the trailer for future consideration.

Jeremy had emptied his swimming pool for maintenance and cleaning.  He sanded rough and discolored spots.  Jennifer's job will be to clean the green tile band around the top. 

Luke's job was to avoid work whenever possible.  He was supposed to be helping his dad (in the hot sun), but decided that helping us was much cooler and more fun.  He was very helpful and lightened our task by being his usual goofy self.  Before he put anything in the trash he had to make sure it was thoroughly and truly broken.  He had fun smashing our old laptop computer, and making a  helmet from a half-inflated plastic ball. 

We finished our trailer with room to walk and easy access to our keepers.


Duane was hot, tired, and in need of a rest before driving home.

Jeremy took a break for a chat before we left for home.


That's a task that we've been wanting to do for a while!

Louise and Duane
