Working Weekend

This weekend we went from having an eyesore of a chainlink fence between us and our neighbours, to having a very nice cedar fence in its place.

Patrik has been working hard, starting with some post hole digging on Friday night...


a supplies delivery on Saturday morning...


and demolition and construction on Saturday and Sunday. Patrik's friend JP helped out both days - that was a huge help and great company for Patrik too.


Anna did the final inspection and was more than satisfied.

Patrik had gone to work a couple of hours earlier, and as always, he had left me a thermos of coffee to have with my breakfast. But, on that particular morning there was also a sweet little note, and folded up into that note were some surprise tickets to a Leonard Cohen concert. Well, that concert was tonight and it was fantastic (although not quite as fantastic as my husband)...
