Some things just fit their names, you know?

Our virtual walk across the UK (Lands End to John O’Groats) with The Conqueror is just a delight at every turn. We are having so much fun!
Power wash
My fantastic blessing of a BIL came by of a Friday evening to power wash my place.

As soon as the work day was over, I masked up, threw on shoes, remembered keys (woot, another disaster averted), grabbed the recycling to go out, and began the trek to mom and dad’s.
