here was how yesterday went…
first thing in the morning the deck looked like this…
the crew arrived and set to deconstructing two decks…
it didn’t take too long and the space was empty…
they went and collected lumber and other needed supplies…the rain came and went throughout the day
by the end of the day the frames were nearly done…
looking promising;-)…

yesterday when we were out we picked up two trellises…
had to replace the sunshine frame that the clematis grew up on the wall at the side of the house… last year when the roofers were here it got broken in a couple of spots…
here is a photo from a while back that shows how it used to look…below the frame my beloved had placed chicken wire to help the clematis make it up to the frame, lol…
and this is how it looks today…
the timing was great because it is just starting to leaf out… it was funny to see the shadow of the frame on the wall when we took it off… you can actually spot the curve in the centre at the top of the trellises… should have taken a picture, lol…
also going to be easier to pull out and plug in the hot tub…
looks great;-)… might just pick up another clematis to add to it…

got a variety of interesting shots today…
started early when I took a picture of the tree with the Advent butterflies and angels added to it…
then I got a few pictures of the 2015 October orchid which is still blooming…
back to the tree for another shot which has a reflection in one of the ornaments…
although the moon was full just last Tuesday it is nearly half gone…
spent quite a bit of time updating pictures for the electronic picture frame…
frustrated because some of the pictures are coming up sideways after I turned them on the card… even bought new batteries for the remote to see if that would make a difference… sigh, no luck…
then the kids met me at Save-On-Foods and we checked it out… got the turkey for Christmas and various other bits and pieces… next time I will go on my own to just wander around and really see what they have, lol…
seemed like there was lots going on today…
