Good 52º clear sunny morning.
Unique date! 7-1-17 !
Weather was nice again. Warmed to 91º by late afternoon. Still not hot enough for AC. Slight breeze.
Yesterday the sink was still making me crazy.
Finally Doug showed up at 11am and got it taken care of! I got to wash dishes!
What a relief!!! Thank you Doug Gillette (https://www.chamberofcommerce.com/grants-pass-or/39399326-doug-gillette-plumbing)
About that time a momma doe and her babies were
up on the hill...

house munching on grape leaves next to my bathroom window...

July 1st
Canada Day (for you Ike!)
Canada Day is a celebration of Canadian
nationalism, heritage and pride. Canada became self-governing on July 1st, 1867,
with the passage of the British North America Act (BNA Act) in the British
Parliament. The holiday was originally known as "Dominion Day". It was changed
to Canada Day by the Canadian Parliament on October 27, 1982.
Did you know? The U.S. and
Canada share the largest un-defended border in the
world
