So! It has been a fairly busy but productive weekend. Friday would have been my parents' 38th wedding anniversary, and Mom took the day off work. It also happened to be one of the only sunny days we've had all MONTH. (Seriously. Can count the sunny days in June on one hand.) So Mom and I took off and went out to Fort Williams (where Portland Head Light is. I love my lighthouses). We sat and read in the sun with the sea breeze and the ocean in view and it was very, very relaxing. Then we went out to eat. So Mom had a very nice anniversary, which was totally the point.

...Also, my brother has decided he is going to build a new front porch. We had a small one on the breezeway, but he kind of... tore it down. Using a crowbar and a chainsaw. But he hasn't bought the materials to build it yet, so... we kind of just have a four foot drop out the front door. But he says he's going to build it this week. We will see.

So, because of all the EPIC RAIN we've had this month, strawberry picking started later than usual--like, yesterday. Mom can't pick anymore, because of her arthritis. So I said I would. Um. Yeah.

I have pictures. Of the FIFTEEN POUNDS of berries I picked. And the million tons of jam. And pie! ...Also cats. )

And tomorrow I am off to [livejournal.com profile] zoe_chan's for a few days, as we are going to SIX FLAGS, come rain or shine! ...We really do hope for sun, though.
