Labor Day becomes Labor Month





As the month of September commenced--yes, I know I could have used the more informal "began", but since I just finished listening to Frankenstein, preceded by The Scarlet Letter, I've been filling my mind with all this more formal vocabulary and I am eager to use some of it!--Willis took advantage of the holiday from work and set to work in completing several projects around our house. A few times a little assistance was required--O Nathan and Ben, where art thou?--but I was only too happy to help. Here are some photos: the new storm door and the covered area to keep the firewood dry.
As you can tell, the dogs are mightily distracted if we have the door open and they have opportunity to look out through the storm door. To save our sanity from constant barking at any type of activity in the neighborhood, we keep the door closed.
