Finally - A New Post

I recently found....
.... Squeegie looking out the sliding door at the back of the condo.  Of course, I went to see what was going on.
There was Poppa down on his knees (the same knees he has been visiting medical professionals about, in hopes of decreasing the pain he experiences when walking and climbing stairs!).  He had created.....
.... a special gizmo, so that he could ensure that his project would be perfectly level.  He started....
.......... by removing the sod from an area along the edge of the existing patio.  Then.........
....... he put some sand on top of the soil and carefully used his magnificent invention to level it to the same depth as the existing patio slabs, then afterwards, precisely laid new half-slabs to extend the patio a few inches.
Once all the half-slabs were laid, he got out the power-washer and used it on the patio - can  you see the huge difference it made?  I couldn't believe they were so dirty!
Alas!  Remember the pretty tulips at the front??  Taffy was lamenting that they were losing their petals and wishing they would last forever - and feeling rather sad about them dying.  Next thing you know..........
........ I catch the two of them sliding down the bannister and staring out the front door at......
....... some pretty flowers that had appeared on the front walkway!
