opening up

 2014

 We made our first visit back to the island earlier than usual this year.  We saw ice on the water and some snow still left on land.  It was also very, very wet.  Beautiful nonetheless.

 We went up early to get a head start on building a loft over the double bed in the children's room.  

While George worked on that, I brought in this shelf and tried to spruce it up with some ribbon.  I put everything you'd need to set a table on it. This way the table can get set without having to disrupt the cook in our rather tiny kitchen.  

We'll be back soon to complete the loft and enjoy the island before we have to hand it over to all of our wonderful renters!  :)
