Summer is over after today.  I go back to work tomorrow and students come back on Tuesday.

On the Serenity Gardens Project, the gazebo has the wood sub-roof on waiting for the steel roofing to come in and be finished.

We are still waiting on the tables, as I spoke with him on Monday and his truck is still being fixed. Hopefully, within two weeks he will deliver them.

Nothing new on the writing front as other interests have taken over my life. Maybe I will find time on weekends when things slow down.

What has your summer been like?  Leave a message below and let us all know how and what you have done.

Until next time,

John

The gazebo will be finished when the rain stops, so it does not ruin the wood that will be covered by the metal roof.

The two tables will be delivered when the company's truck gets fixed. Then some bushes along the alley and I am through with it. 

There will be no big project like this again for me. This has drained me and leaves me sleepless at night. I think this is why my health is not good at this time.

Medical tests results should be back in the next week and then the visit next month with a new lung doctor might help, too. Just hope the tests results are good ones. They are running about a half dozen different blood tests. The other test, that I can't remember the name of, was done on Wednesday.  Those results should have been back today, but the clinic never called. So, I guess IU Starke didn't get it to them or the PA just didn't bother to call.

Someone left 12 bags of plant dirt on the Gardens site.  I have no idea who or why?  If you know, please leave a message down below and tell me about it.

Hope to get back to writing before too long.

Stay dry and see you next time.

We worked last Saturday and installed the engraved bricks up to the gazebo.

We are still waiting on the tables and then after the gazebo is finished, I will plant some bushes along the alley.  Hope to get a tree before too long, but may not until August.

Hi,

We worked our last Saturday and finished up the walkways and planted the last flowers. Now we wait until the gazebo is finished by that crew, so we can put in the tables and the engraved brick walkway. Still need to add some mulch as we ran out, but for the most part we are through.

We started working today by putting in the 7 benches and the foot path made of bricks that look like feet.

We still have the plants and some shrubs along with a Christmas Tree to put in yet.

We will work the next two Saturdays to finish up.

Here is a picture.
