The Yard Fence is Almost Done

The bed and breakfast has been quite busy, leaving little time to do jobs other than the daily chores and tend to the B & B. The fence along the north side of the driveway was started several weeks ago, but nothing more was done. The drill quit working or a little would have been done every day. Today, two really fine drills were borrowed from the contractor, who just happened to come by to show his nephew the porch project. So, Travis and I worked on the fence and got it completed on the driveway side, with the exception of the gates. We also, earlier, took the car and truck to the car wash to power wash them with hot water and soap. Travis took off the canopy to better access cleaning the box and will put it on tomorrow before he leaves for camp again. The smart car got new seat covers and floor mats, pink and black, to match the car, and a super great vacuuming job. The dust was removed, but the car still needs to be washed inside and the bugs scrubbed of outside. Two wash jobs and still the front is covered with smacked bug juice - yuk!

In addition to the driveway fence, which will keep the birds off the bed and breakfast lawn and deck, the fence around the farmhouse will be the next project to keep the animals off the new porch and deck there too.

Then, one of my favourite parts of the day winds up the evening, the bath in the antique claw foot tub. Tonight a little hemp soap was added for bubbles and ambiance. That hemp soap is the most amazing, gentle, nourishing soap I have made so far and I use it for everything from washing dishes to bubbles in the tub. Zzzz, good night all.
