First, a little update from the coast…
Our neighbor found our little boat 3 lots down under trees and bushes
sooo sad…😢
It has been a long and stressful two weeks but we’re making progress,
our big boat has been transported to the dealership for repairs,
I have filed the insurance claims,
gotten approval for building permits for the roof and pier repair,
so now it’s just a matter of waiting…
The pool is no longer green and the interior of the house remains dry,
but HHjr says that all the vegetation is dead and looks awful
We lost our big satsuma orange tree
It was loaded with over 100 oranges
almost ready to be picked…
But we are lucky, so many lost so much,
the hurricane and flooding damage is extensive inland too
So please keep saying prayers
for everyone dealing with hardship, covid and 2020
On a much happier note, look at this rainbow mum I found the other day!
Come on out, I want to show you our Harvest Patio!
The weather is delightful this weekend,
highs around 70 lows in the 50s
Perfect temps for tablescaping and patio dining
I set the table with pumpkin plates and my MKC Pumpkin Truck
There’s also a pitcher of faux black eyed Susans
helping to distract from the umbrella pole
One of my BFFs came over and brought lunch
We sat out here and enjoyed being together on a beautiful day
I hadn’t seen her since February!
I don’t leave the tray outside overnight,
and it’s easily transported to a shelf in the kitchen
where it can be enjoyed inside too
Guess what, the Autumn “There’s No Place like Home” Blog Hop
continues this week with more Fall crafts and creations!
Thanks for your visit, and we will keep calm and repair on!
Yesterday HHjr, with the help of friends,
got the little boat back in the water and towed to the boat ramp
and put on a trailer for transport to dealership for repair
{Yikes, it looks rough but it’s floating!}
I hope you are enjoying a beautiful October!
