The awesome crew from Powerful Roofing did our roof repairs today. What a fantastic company!!

These guys were so careful not to leave a mess, and worked quickly and efficiently. I took cookies out to them and got to practice my Spanish, too. (“Tengo galletas para ustedes!”)

    Your hummer and flower photos are soooo nani! I didn’t know you *could* grow dahlias from seed! Good construction guys are such a blessing. We’re having our decks repaired, and the workers are very nice. I wonder if na pīpī were hiding from the heat. G gave me a t-shirt that says “I love ukes and cats,” so I think that card your friend sent you is fantastic.

Also, I just watched a video on YouTube that reminded me of the card your friend sent you call, “Childless Cat Ladies” hahahaha (two gals about my age with white hair playing guitar and mandolin…not ukes but…)
