It was a beautiful, sunny day yesterday at Struan Farm. John proposed a picnic lunch down at the river so that I could see the new deck nephew Mike has built on the boat shed at the Mangaotaki River rapids and sandy beach. And I accepted, happy to have a brief break from the weeding!
I'm getting pretty good at picnics. Salad and sparkling water, under the trees near the BBQ area. I didn't go the whole hog (no flowers, but we did have a tablecloth, silverware and china). It WAS meant to be a quick lunch. After lunch we packed up and drove down to the rapids and sandy beach.
The new deck on the boat shed looks great. Next the shed will be painted red. Note that my attempt to call the boat shed "the cabana" has fallen completely flat. No support for that whatsoever. I know when I'm losing, so have agreed to "The Boat Shed."
