Duties

Mehgan tending to the greenhouse greens

Last weekend Meghan and I began our summer duties. Above, Meghan tends to the vegetables in the greenhouse - while I powerwashed the house to prepare for painting. Everyone in town seems to know that we have a daunting task ahead of us painting the house before August. Alas, we hope that the weather cooperates. So far, the weather has been too nice to work as we have been hiking, biking, kayaking and surfing when the sun shines.
Tomorrow Meghan leaves for summer camp. She is chaperoning at Dig Afognak on Afognak Island from Saturday through Wednesday. "A haven for cultural exploration," the program offers a series of cultural immersion programs to explore Alutiiq culture and history. Meghan will participate in the Iluani Camp, interacting with Native Elders and area youth. She starts packing tonight. Perhaps part of the house will be a different color when she returns, perhaps.
