Week Past 06/16-06/22/08(More Tiling)
Mon 06/16 Dennis with his Dad who is vacationing continued installing the tiles at the facade of the house that was started Sat 06/14. They came a little after 6:00 pm since Dennis had work that day. Helped them but more on dismantling the pallet and cleaning up. We had a late dinner around 10:00 pm before they went home. This work schedule continued on until Wed 06/18. It's tiring to say the least. You don't get things squared away until past 11:00 pm.
But when it's done it feels good.

(L) The finished product. A new facade. There's still work to be done: Cleaning and sealing the tiles. My sole responsibility.

(R) From a different angle.


Sat 06/21 is the First Day of Summer according to the calendar. For me it started more than a week ago. W and I attended Dante and Lydia's Off to College celebration for their son Stephen who got admitted at Fordham. Then we went to Linders Garden Store by Rainbow Foods parking lot in CR 42 and Hi-way 13 to exchange some of the plants we bought last year that did not thrive.

(R)They had a lot of guests from lunch to dinner. Extra seating in front of the yard.

(L)Like a fiesta with various Filipino food on the table. Each labeled with a description for the uninitiated.

(Below)The usual guests. Some of them helped in the preparation and clean up. And of course get the spoils from the left overs.

Sun 06/22 was Dennis and Jackie's turn to host a birthday party for their precocious daughter Sam. Another food galore.

(R)Blowing the candle.

(L)They also set up an inflated castle at their backyard. Never had that when we were kids. Think of how that castle expands their imagination.

(R)Birthday girl about to blow the candle with proud Mom looking on.
