Before the rain:
* we had a really nice rock wall built by a friend (Kale helped)...
* carried around a few of the ladies...
During the rain:
* we made cookies in the nude (one of us anyway)
* the slugs ate my zucchini plants and half of the beans...
* we played at the beach....
*hit up some classic Maine landmarks...
* Fired up the wood stove twice.
* and made the most of any few minutes when it wasn't actively raining.
Then thankfully, this weekend the sun came out, and we celebrated appropriately with a women's group run in the sun (the shoes were finally dry from last week), a work session in the garden in which 16 large slugs were harvested and promptly fed to the chickens; a backyard camp out chez un amis complete with deluxe kiddie swimming accommodations (think cattle trough) and homemade waffles on their screen porch. Followed by ice cream out, a trip to the lake and playground, and a little backyard bathing back at home. Proper June weather. Hooray!
