Getting Together

 Hello all,

Hope everyone is doing well this Thursday morning.  We had a delightful evening at Bonnie & Zhongren's last night.  Anna was there (and Otto) and Mailing got there a little later.  It was so nice to all be together again.  Dinner was delicious (ribs, grilled sausage, green beans [from our garden], marinated eggplant, pickled veggies, and a Swedish almond cake for dessert...also wine [of course]).  I'm sorry I didn't take any pictures of food!

However, I do have pictures from their back yard.  I know I have shown these before, but everything is just so nice that I have to show it again!  Here is the shed that Zhongren built:


 Love the windows and door!

And here is his garden:


The little well on the left is new.  He collects rainwater up near the house and then pipes (underground) it down to the well for watering his garden.  The arch in the center is where his cucumbers are growing.  Some of them were at least 18" long!!  He also is growing beans, tomatoes and some other things.

And here is Otto!


And that's it for today.  A quick post as I need to get to work.  Have a wonderful Thursday!
