Postcards from Maine/Postikortteja Mainesta





The Captain emailed these pictures to me from Maine. It apparently has been a bit chilly up there (hard to imagine in the 100F Virginia weather). I'm sure the kids were happy their wetsuits still fit them ;-) Oh, and Missy caught fish! It sounds like everyone is doing well in Maine. (Mama is glad.)



The Captain writes: "So tomorrow is a big day. We will have spray foam insulation in the cabins, well drilling, J will be digging ditches and M & H will be doing the septic..."

Hopefully by digging 300 feet down we'll get good clean water. Currently when we turn on water at our Maine house we get lake water. Hair-turning-orange-producing-clean-lake-water. Here's to hoping the well water won't have too much iron in it!

Kapteeni lähetti nämä kuvat Mainesta. Siellä on ollut aika kylmä, uskon että isot lapset olivat kiitollisia että heidän märkäpukunsa vielä mahtuvat.. Huomenna on iso päivä: pikkumökit saavat eristysvaahtoa, kaivoa (meillä tulee hiuksia-oranssiksi-värjäävää järvivettä hanoista) ja ojia kaivetaan, ja jätekaivon remontti alkaa. Kaivosta on paras tulla vähemmän rautapitoista vettä!
