This picture is from a while ago, but the party dresses seemed appropriate for the celebration of half a year of exile. They decided it was a party-dress day and Exile #2 agreed on condition that they didn't play in the dirt. Note that in the picture they are playing with wood-chippings from the tree-felling!Today was a cooler day than recent ones, with a high of about 78 °F compared with 94 °F for the last few days. In the same way that we surprised ourselves by getting used to the cold weather of the winter, we are acclimatising to the heat as well, sort-of. I took advantage of the more reasonable (seasonable?) temperature to cut the grass again. It may not really qualify as gardening, but it will have to do for now.
We got quite a few other jobs done today, acquired some lamps for the front room, air-beds for visitors (doubling as TV-watching furniture for now) and nightstands (bedside tables) for the girls. We also removed our last belongings from the other house (except for a couple of things we've since remembered of course!). It's a tiring process, but we're getting there.
