More new windows, fountain

Before we get to the windows, it's important for you to know that we now have electricity running down the side of the driveway into the fountain pump! We dug a huge long trench and the basically Jimmy-Rigged the pump, hose, robber stopper, etc. so that it worked. There's so much we had to think about. The red bucket is covering the electrical connection until we figure out how to block out the dirt and moisture. I think it needs a light.

Oh and also, we might start painting the house. We started scraping. It needs a ton of scraping and priming. You'll see the potential new color in the next photo.


Okay, so here are the new windows: bathroom and one of the new bedroom windows. It's amazing being able to crack a window in the summer. It's wonderful. We'll need to either buy or borrow a table saw to re-trim the windows.

Bonus shot: We planted mini-pumpkins where the spinach used to be. They're growing like crazy! We can't wait until September. I think mid-August we'll throw in some broccoli and winter lettuce so that we'll have a crop in April
