Progress

I have always wanted a hottub; the idea of sitting in one after a long day, kids in bed and a glass of wine in hand has appealed to both Todd and I.  We bought one in May-ish and it's been in our yard, waiting for us to install.  It's been a busy summer with our two holidays and a bit too hot to soak in steamy water so it hasn't been a priority...until recently.  The days are getting shorter, the evenings and mornings cooler so operation hottub is almost complete.  Concrete pad poured, tub in place on said pad and an electrician is booked for this week.  Ideally it will be functioning next weekend, just in time for me to leave for a work trip to Scotland.

The other project that we wanted to complete this year is the final side of the fence.  It is down and the post holes are dug.
