Just thought you might want to know...They are WITH me!




It's good to be on the same page! 
This crew that was telling me this morning how the nest would not be hurt by the heat have come on board!  Little Miss Dovey was taken good care of before they left. I want you to look at the extra mile they went for her.  
She says, "Thank you, thank you!!"
They didn't finish that side so they added a temp piece over her and even added a fan...now that is above and beyond!!


She is perched and happy. Now I'll sleep better (so will she)

Through it all ...

A closer look...

They'll work on this tomorrow...


Soon shade again...














BUT NOW THIS NEXT PIC IS THE STAR!!
She is the ultimate supervisor.  She's been through every loud buzz and pound imaginable and has stayed faithfully watching over her eggs (and the job, I might add)
I requested no one  mess with this part of the frame for the carport cover.  It's her domain (and her little chicks) All the workmen have been very aware of her watchful eye and have done their best to not mess with her nest.  I'm a little worried about all the heat she is enduring without the cover.  I'm going to put a cover over this corner or her babies are going to fry!
THROUGH IT ALL....Little Momma Dove



Here we go....come on back little dove...you have shade again.





All better now...(I hope!)

All new soon...again.

After the hail storm a few weeks ago the repair has finally started at the Coles'.  It's been a busy week of workmen in and out and they are doing a super fantastic job! They should be finished by the end of the week.
 We are so pleased with Green Hills Construction Co/ Nick and Randy and their crew.  How refreshing it is to have quality work and quality people to work with.  Thank you Nick and Randy!
We've also enjoyed a visit from our nephew, Ben Clark, while here on business.   
Here's a few pics of the work going on.


 Pretty hot up there!
               Until the next blog...with the after pics...have a great evening. 
          Now where is dinner with our sweet nephew, Ben, tonight?

Today is the day...hammer, hammer, pound, pound...Yeah!


The hail damage repair work  has begun. 
  It will go into next week and we'll have a new roof, damaged woodwork replaced, new window wraps, new carport/porch cover, gutters replaced.
Today they are concentrating on replacing the bad wood.  Monday the roof and on from there. 



 Now, let's see ... what can I find I just have to do to NOT be here...nails, hair, shopping, lunch...things a girl has to do, right! Just kidding...I actually like to be home when 'things' are going on.  It's fun.
Hope everyone is having a good day and staying cool.
Until the next blog...
mmm-whaaa! (that's blowing you a kiss :)

Josey and I are off to Niota, TN this morning to spend a few days with my son, Travis, Lacie, Emma, Elle, and Evva.  
Some fun things planned with them.  Among other fun things, the girls will be taking a tour to Mayfield Ice Cream while I keep Evva.
Travis and I will go shooting again with my pistols and a Carbine rifle to try out.  
Hope to grab a visit to Knoxville to lunch with some special friends!
