Another study spot ...

I overheard Nelson tell somebody last weekend, "She's always in her room studying." Since then the number of studying locations has doubled, and now includes this slate-stone patio in the back corner of Nelson's yard. It was really too cold to enjoy it for much longer than the length of time it took me to nab some photos, hence we didn't take time to bring the chair cushions out of the garage. Even G.T. (the cat) needed a warming spot. Most of the stone slabs were buried beneath the back of the garage or in this spot, so we dug them out, levelled the dirt,and then arranged the stones. The chairs we rescued from a "dump pile" in front of someone's house during last fall's annual clean-up day. The cushions were $60, so the whole project cost very little more than that, plus a few afternoon's labor. Either shade or sun is available -- depending on which spot the weather dictates. Since my laptop computer is wireless, I can just as easily work outside as in.
The new term begins June 7; when the weather's nice, this is where I plan to be.
