Two men working…

And one watching…supervising?

Airstream repair

MM is such a smart guy.  He bought this Airstream travel trailer “right” because it had some major rear-end damage.  Since he had to replace the bumper, he used a tool box that he already had (extra storage is always welcome), and bolted it onto a pull-out tray that will now store the sewer hoses and keep them out of the way.  Final touch--a bike rack mounts on top of the tool box.  Brian helped him get it moved into place while Dan supervised and I photographed.  Teamwork, right?!  MM’s knees are now rebelling a bit, but otherwise, he is a happy camper with the outcome.

We spent the hot afternoon watching the Tour de France, keeping cool, and being lazy.  Knowing we had a wake to attend in the evening for a local young man kept our day to a slower pace.  It is always sad when a life is cut short.

Life is not a dress rehearsal, so enjoy each and every day, y’all.

Sanford and Son hard at work!

It is really hard to lose a classmate, especially so young. I am trying to focus on the positive: life is indeed short so we must make the most of each day. Carpe diem!

Everyone knows MM is brilliant. Everyone! That's because he is.

Sorry about the young person. What a shame that the good often die young and then the awful live past 100.

Have a terrific day honey. Big hugs. :)

Your MM is most definitely a keeper! It's got to be great to have such a handy man around!
