The hills are greener today than yesterday and I can see a soft green haze of new leaves on the tree tops. Even the tiny bushes have fat buds about to burst open. But neither Don nor I have had too much opportunity to gaze out at the landscape because we've been working feverishly to get the kitchen done before Kim and Oliver and Liam arrive. I just don't want them to walk into and have to live in a mess here with us. At last though, it's done (mostly) and we are ready for the unveiling. Try to remember the pictures that we posted here a while back that showed things in disarray and see if it looks any better!
