Our February visit was busy and fun. Saturday we spent the morning cleaning up the front, front yard (by the road):  hauling brush, raking, shoveling, and moving sand from the scar left by the installation of the water pipe to the house. We'll see if any grass comes up in the spring. There is literally only about 3 inches of topsoil before it's just sand that makes up Cape Cod soil!

But the weekend was not all 'work'! We started the Birthday puzzle (from Kathy and Chuck), complete with sorting trays!

And hung the finch feeder on a post on the new deck. We'll see if any birds find it before spring! 

We plan to hang more hooks for wind chimes and flowers.

Bob also worked in the basement - organizing and investigating 'new' tools from Paul's collection: thanks, I think. Paul and Vicky stayed overnight last weekend to see a production in Cotuit of a play Vicky will direct this spring. Jen and Matt also stopped by to see them, after a weekend at the Kimball's!

The weather was cloudy and not too cold on Saturday, but rainy on Sunday, so we stayed in and painted some more trim in the kitchen. Bob got the first coat on the window in the eating area. I'll have to get to work on finding or making curtains!
