Rochester Mn - The birthday workday

This year for Mom/Grandma's birthday we asked her to create a list of projects that she would like to get done . We gathered a good percentage of us from the area and worked our way through the list.  And celebrated another birthday after the list was completed.
We were inside and outside and working both the top to bottom of the house.  We had a good range 1 - 83 years.  Sister Lucille arrived Friday night to get caught up but had a better offer and missed all the fun on Saturday.
And will she or won't she - quit smoking, finish the needlework...and not find a new vice to survive it.  Keep us updated Lauren...
There has been lots of work being done in the neighborhood as part of a street upgrade, including a gas upgrade.  I got home tired and grimy from the work day and was welcomed to a cold shower when I tried to clean up - fortunately Xcel Energy came shortly and got me all up and running again.
