I still have prep work to do for next year, but I can do it at home. So glad you enjoyed the post!

Up until the end of last week I was as busy as ever but now that I'm just doing the mini golf for my summer job and it's 4 days a week I have time to relax (those 4 days, the hours can be just 5 hours or 12 hours so that part depends) a bit and enjoy.

I had a fan in my bedroom window, too, growing up. No AC at our house, back then, either.<br /><br />I enjoyed your post, the memories and the photo of the old homestead!Terri Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333024343069943295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-67781161727155596332014-06-23T18:53:37.715-04:002014-06-23T18:53:37.715-04:00Kim- It is.
