August Visits to our Parents

In August, Elaine and I both went to Oregon to visit our aging parents again
Elaine with her parents
 Mom's sister Norma and her daughter from Spokane were also visiting 
Joe and Joyce were with me at the nursing home where mom is getting care until she gets over the infection she is fighting.
 Joyce with a Dalia flower  she grew at Moms house
 I bought her a milkshake she was craving.
She is so weak she cannot sit up straight.  We wheeled her out to the garden to see the end of season flowers and get her out of the room for a bit. 
Looks like the Garden Fairies followed me to Vancouver!
A group of us guys went to Lake Merwin to put a new temporary roof over the trailer. 
Nephew David Hassa constructing the trusses
 Marty and me assembling the truss sections
 Then lifted it all onto the roof
 Matching the two sections together
Stapling the tarp to the structure 
Joe with the sign we made for his wood pile.  He loves to bring up wood and make fires at the lake.
