the operator arm for the broken window at the house arrived during the week and greg installed it saturday. i am so relieved because now we don't have to get a whole new window.
cricket always has to investigate . .
we also had a visitor . . a little fawn was born on the side of the house a few days or so ago and ensconced itself in the sprinkler well. i observed it nursing with its mother from the bedroom window and then she went away and he settled down. i found information online about the habits of white tailed deer and we avoided mowing the lawn where it was resting. i only did a quarter of the front lawn as i didn't want to cause stress or spook the mother into abandoning it.
tea with cricket . .
dinner at the inlet . . (fish and chips and shrimp tacos).

sunday afternoon we had a lovely visit with korrina, josh and josh's mom (at her place in the next town over). we had a delicious salad with grilled chicken along with italian cookies that we had brought and pastries from his mom's local bakery. the weather alternated clouds and sun and fog . .
so much fog!
korrina went for a swim and sent two photos of the foggy shore:
back at the house with the little rascals . .
i also finished the lawn mowing as the fawn was no longer in the well. when we first got back i had noticed the mother deer heading into the little wooded area . . i figured she must have moved him there.
it was a cool foggy evening . . and the mowing and subsequent raking up of the grass clippings was very meditative.

we headed home early this morning . . hoping to beat traffic. we stopped at the bakery where the delicious pastries came from yesterday . .
olive oil bread with raspberry jam . .
it was another grey and foggy day . .
